Because they currently lose money for every token sold. They’re operating at a loss to generate a userbase so that they can monetize later. They’re currently in the pre-enshittification (I still don’t like that word) phase where they want to offer a good product at a loss and lure in customers, not phase 2 where they monetize their userbase.
Creating additional tokens LOSES them money. For a single token, the cost of generating it exceeds the profits.
I genuinely don’t understand what would drive someone to be this condescending when you don’t even understand the argument I have clearly laid out four times now.
Are you? Because now we’ve agreed on every fact to determine my conclusion is correct. Yes they do want people using their product; they want to lure in customers. Wasting tokens generating unhelpful output would both drive customers away with a worse experience, and cost them more money. So there’s no reason for them to do that. Like I said in my first post.

and? How do you not understand that more money is better for them even if they’re not in the black, yet?
Two things can be true at once.

Do you think they don’t want people using their product? Are you really that dense?
