The post asks how OpenAI is able to temporarily remove the 5-hour limit for Codex and keep resetting usage throughout the week, speculating that the extra capacity must be coming from somewhere and wondering whether training work was paused to support the rollout.
The quoted OpenAI reply says the higher limit was only temporary, and that users should expect the old limit to return at some point.
