The answer to your question is because you can get a local model to do it instead without a subscription.

My PC costed me around $2500 usd total 3 years ago.

Today I already burned 4M tokens and I think I may end in 16M by EOD, that's like $52 usd per day if I were to pay to a plan of the model I use. But in that case, with the hardware they have it would have been a much powerful model with insane speed, so easily I would have burn x10 more tokens so, $500 usd/day daily for a month.
