That is a very strange calculation for me or I missed something. This is an open-source project, so all human contributors cost zero. He does not count himself as a cost, ok fine and understandable if you don't wanna earn from this project it is kind of an ok look at cost.
But if I see it in this relation, because of Copilot his "team" costs now $41.73 a month more than before.
But the real cost that would be interesting is time value: Does he really spends less time for the same feature?
Copilot doesn’t learn. Not really. It doesn’t know what rqlite is trying to become. It doesn’t remember that last week we made a small refactor to make future development easier, or that I abandoned a particular idea as a dead end. Every session is a fresh start. There is no growth. No shared context. No mentoring relationship... There’s no growing rapport. Just output.

So... you don't have a "team".
