Technically impossible for them because real-time attribution cuts into margin. Config-layer tracking does not have that constraint. You do not need real-time billing data if you know from the agent config that it is going to explode before

the planning-your-day-around-the-window thing is real and underrated as a cost. the limits don't just hit you at the moment you hit them, they change how you work for the entire day around them. we're building something called Tra
