Weekly limit ran out even though I never hit the 5-hour limit

Hello, yes it’s happening to me… just today you renewed my license and within a window of 6 hours you’ve already consumed half of the weekly and 100% daily consumption. Even if the 5.4 is a more robust model, I find this new shape disproportionate. I’ve been using codex since its inception and I had 1 times the consumption 100% and it was last week and today it has already consumed half of the plan. I use good practices with long-term projects with context management just to save money. Small tasks are using all this. I’m disappointed.
