Totally agree

The value for Anthropic / OAI is that they have a strong interest in becoming the "default" agent.

The one that you don't need to install, because it's already provided by your package manager.

I don't think this holds because we're talking about developers who know how to use a package manager, on a piece of software you have to install anyways. The friction of "uv add $other_llm_software" is too low for it to have a real impact.

I think they're more into the extra context they can build for the LLM with ruff/ty.

until "uv add $openai_competitor" mysteriously breaks in odd, difficult to troubleshoot ways.
You fool think they are targeting developers with this purchase?
