Most people have bad taste. Most developers are not able to discern quality from bullshit. You see it every day. People enslaved by the news, by religion, by politics. OpenClaw is a fad like most of the other garbage out there. It uses 1000x the tokens of a normal AI user so obviously the AI wholesalers are paying attention. They want AI adoption and to maximize token usage. Remember the crypto bros punting web 3.0 as the world changing idea of the century? Well now it's easy to see that was garbage and it will be easy to see this paradigm of giving an insecure system access to all your shit is a bad idea in the near future.
Just an extra data point, you can self host the model too. Clawdbot or moltbot or whatever can use Ollama. Not that this helps with the garbage, but at least it won't cost you.
