Opus Cost = Minimum Wage in South Africa

I was curious and checked it out: Opus 5 on the API at normal working intensity lands at 0.9×–1.3× the minimum wage in South Africa - at an average of ~$13 per active developer-day works out to R27.33/hour against a R30.23 floor (SA min wage). I just found that interesting and curios. I wonder how it holds up around the world.

Gross minimum wage is 12,31€/h in France as of June 2026 (https://www.francetravail.fr/actualites/a-laffiche/connaitre...)
