Office 365 is literally double the price of Gmail, and full-blown Exchange is even more expensive. I wouldn't call double the price "roughly the same".

It’s literally not double the price. Office 365 is $5-15 depending on edition (Business Essentials, Business, and Business Premier) and if you do an annual commitment. That’s the same price range as GSuite which is $5 to $25 depending on version (Basic, Business, Enterprise).

That's small business pricing. Their enterprise pricing is higher: https://products.office.com/en-us/business/compare-more-offi...

Ok, since you won’t give up even in the face of obvious facts:
O365 Enterprise E1 is $8/month
O365 Enterprise E3 is $20/month
O365 Enterprise E5 is $35/month
GSuite Enterprise is $25/month
So none of O365’s Enterprise editions are double the price and in fact all but one edition is cheaper than GSuite Enterprise.
Practically free!? Google Apps for domains is either $5 or $10+ a month per user, depending on feature set. That’s roughly the same price as most other commercial email providers. I don’t know for sure, but my guess is they make a profit on every account just on those monthly fees.
