A few thousand dollars of decrease doesn’t offset the doubling of prices that happened during Covid. You should consider asking for specifics instead of trying to do a witty insult.

Rates weren’t effectively zero prior to Covid. They were too low, yes, and should have been higher, but the bottom fell out during Covid.
