Gaps in this history

Exact day of the February 2024 repoint to gpt-3.5-turbo-0125 not found (month only). The pricing pages of 2023-2024 list snapshots, not the alias, so no capture directly shows the alias price between 2024-02 and 2025-12. Batch prices for the alias are not listed on any official page found (only for gpt-3.5-turbo-0125).
