Because it is for now. If they mess with it then it'll not be a good deal and folks will leave it.

The first part of all the shit that's bad, is to have a phase where it's good first.

"It's good for now" is just the typical path to it becoming shit.

This is as equally true of "it's shit now and will continue to be". Capitalism demands profits and enshitification ensues. Might as well enjoy what you can while you can.
