Lack of control over automatic model switching and removal of Premium auto
Users are frustrated by the removal of the 'Premium auto' mode and the system's tendency to automatically switch models without consent. This leads to unexpected token spend and forces users to manually manage model selection, which disrupts their development workflow.

Premium auto was so smooth. Please bring it back.
I’m not particularly interested in burning the brain power to pick through the models.
Please allow me to opt IN to model setting changes, not opt out.
For cost reasons, id like to have controll over this and either being forced to approve the new model in auto or dont turn it on automatically.
