Yeah you don't have to convince me. I switched to Codex mid-January in part because of the dubious quality of the tui itself and the unreliability of the model. Briefly switched back through March, and yep, still a mistake.
Once OpenAI added the $100 plan, it was kind of a no-brainer.

Far more than any other development tools.
Services that cost that much money generally come with expectations.
