That's horrible business practice, you always count on a certain number of people dropping out, not noticing, and not caring..... it's kind of like overselling seats (free revenue)

So? Reward people for telling you that there are some people who aren't into your thing, but that they did try. This information has value.
"Sorry it didn't work out, here's a coffee!"
I mean, by what standard of "business practice" is this "horrible?" Keep in mind we're in an era of exploding conventions.
