Probably for companies and opportunistic individuals with a high risk tolerance. As for me, just give me hard budget caps. It shouldn't be a choice between supporting one of the approaches, when you could let each client pick what they want.

Want an alert? Configure one.

Want a hard limit? Configure one.
