What's Wrong?

Since the transition to Claude 4.6, my consumption has been exploding rapidly: the tokens are scrolling much faster than before, without a clear explanation from you. And now you are driving home by removing the detailed consumption indicators (session bars, weekly, etc.), which prevents me from understanding where I am at and anticipating outages.

What Should Happen?

For a paid tool, hiding the usage telemetry while the limits are hardening is unacceptable: I expect complete transparency about my consumption and the restoration of accurate tracking in the interface.
