It's amazing how much a rate-limited Twitter isn't Twitter any more:

- It makes the "for you" tab even worse, now their discovery mechanism takes away quota from the Tweets you wanted to see

- I have no idea how many tweets I view in a day: but now that I'm thinking about it I'm actively closing after a quick check

- I feel pressured to read to the end of what's loaded before refreshing (I paid for those!) but it's new content that makes Twitter special

- 6000 is awfully low for your highest paid tier

- I bet most new users don't hit 300 -- but most new power-users will. I don't know if there are any future-power-users who haven't already tried Twitter but they might never get hooked, especially since your first day is going to have the highest junk:goodstuff ratio
