They're not even that much cheaper (1/2 price per task according to Artificial Analysis) once you account for lower token usage of GPT-5.5. I can't justify it when factoring in the extra time wasted, and the cheap codex usage I get through the monthly plan. Frontier intelligence is not a commodity product ... yet.

The price per task already factors in token usage so you're double counting if you're also tacking "higher token usage" as another argument on top
