Preserve GLM 4.6 or Create a "Retro" Category

I would ask that the GLM 4.6 retirement on 11/17/26 be reconsidered or at the very least postponed a few months. The model is exceptional in conversation, research, technical support, brainstorming, etc. Newer models seem rigid, GLM 4.6 does not. To retire GLM 4.6 would be a loss. Also, to my understanding, Z.AI still supports GLM 4.6, so the retirement to me is confusing. I have been a Pro user for a few months now, about $500 total expenditure. Despite having access to any model I want, 4.6 is my go to (with only occasional use otherwise). It’s not always about the new shiny model, but the feel in using it. I understand there are costs in maintaining models, so I (personally) would potentially be willing to pay an additional fee per month to preserve GLM 4.6 or have access to said “retro” category in accompaniment to classic chat. GLM 4.6 has been an excellent partner in a variety of workflows, projects, and has helped me in a number of ways. What Venice has done has been exceptional overall, as a company and platform, so thank you. That said, I feel an obligation to request your reconsideration on GLM 4.6 retirement. I would also request a larger time frame in notification of model retirement if possible. If I understand correctly, model throttling is also an issue in the late stage of the retirement process and perhaps should be revisited if true. Regardless, I appreciate your time.
