I wonder if any legal minds here could comment on whether they owe me $1.5billion if I sign up for this. Technically it's an offer with consideration that I'm accepting, and happy to pay $-1.5billion for this service, even though I know that trying to get this to stand up in court would be a fools errand.

There are all sorts of things in law about “reasonable persons” and contracts needs to be beneficial for both parties. I am sure this would not be binding.

It looks like Jira is testing paying user acquisition. They currently pay $765 million for each new Standard user and $1,506M in the Premium Plan :-D https://ibb.co/BP04ZNg Really, I wonder where these numbers come from...

It's a 10x discounted option by the looks of it.

They must be A/B testing.

If you can't get your pricing page right you have to wonder what else is a mess under the hood at Atlassian

Under the hood they might prefer to do accounting in floating point. BigDecimal isn't meant for true programmers.

My life got infinitely easier once I learnt the financial world all use integers in cents to do their money calculations.
