My point was that it was cost of model rewrite by agents + 3 months worth of coding by lots of people.
5k open PRs atm + 3.5k open issues. I have no idea what is the state of Bun right now, but I am not confident in it.
I don't think there was a lot of people working on the rewrite. Most PRs are from bots. Original estimates for a manual rewrite were a small team working for a year or so, which puts total costs over $1M. Even doubling the token cost estimates, it was still cheaper than doing it manually by a factor of 2x-3x
