   Am I just out of touch with our times if I think hand-wavey usage limits on a 500$ subscription is crazy?

      Usage is sus but 500 minus tax write off to even a one person business that makes 100-500k yr. not crazy at all - kinda expected.

      Worth it? Huge YMMV. I'd expect a $1000 sub next.

         You can also right off actual $6000 hardware

            Not 100% in the first year (where I live). By the time it’s depreciated, it’s time to replace. Subscriptions are 100% deductible in the year you pay them.

               You might be able to use the accelerated depreciation schedule which is 100% first year

               Since 2025 in the U.S. computer hardware qualifies for 100% depreciation in its first year of service.

            I'd rather use the fancy models while absurd valuations are subsidising them and then pick up a couple grand worth of their old hardware in a few years when they're eol.

            M5 ultra wait time just went from 4 to 8 weeks over the weekend. Can't wait that long.
