  "textContent": "Zamin, you fell for it.\nHe’s not trying to understand your problem. That’s not the goal. He’s bored, has ChatGPT open, and is generating replies to troll people on the forum. The irony is beautiful — he’s burning Codex limits to defend Codex limits.\nNow the facts he never managed to answer:\n— Codex burns tokens, not hours\n— Reading project files, loading context, processing instructions — all of this consumes tokens BEFORE the model does anything useful\n— The interface shows hours — but charges through a token counter that is never explained openly\n— Result: you see 68% remaining in the 5h window, try to work — the system silently blocks you and offers to sell credits. Until next week.\nThat is not a comprehension problem. That is a UI honesty problem.\nLeave him to talk to ChatGPT. We have a screenshot — no prompt can argue with that.",
