Good point, but it could easily happen from both sides. The harness can just be default-tuned to think longer and harder on problems, or have dark UI patterns so the user _chooses_ the more expensive option even though the less expensive is available.
It just feels your own harness tuning for more token use protects these companies from audits and litigation. I mean this is exactly what is going on with this new feature.

Not that I disagree but I can imagine it's easy enough to ship implicit token increase (ratchet up the COT settings) on then backend
