Hmm, we should get together some funds to buy a single unlimited subscription, and then let it continuously generate as large and complex prompts as the rate limitting allows.

On one hand, heck yes. On the other, part of the reason its so expensive is because of the energy and water usage, so sticking it to the man in this way also is harmful to the environment :(

Normally the people talking about water use have no idea what they are talking about. Normally data center cooling is closed loop, much like a cars cooling system. So they don't use significant amounts of water at all.

hey shithead, what's evaporative cooling and why metric-chasing design (PUE in this case) likes it so much?

Buy two. Ask the other to generate expensive prompts.
