Heavy User Says Claude Max 20x Isn't Enough, Would Pay 50% More for 30x

A developer building a large project complains that Claude's Max 20x plan falls short: running many code sessions plus planning chats seven days a week, he needs roughly 25-30% more usage, while top-ups and open spend are not cost-realistic. His split: Opus for main sessions, Fable for cross-area strategy, Sonnet for docs; he saves strategy for the last day of the week, then fires a big block of parallel code sessions that burns 20-25% of weekly quota on day one. He'd happily pay 50% more for a 30x tier.
