It's not only that - the bag prices mess with price comparison web sites so much, that it's impossible to find the best deal. Win-Win for the airlines.

Kayak has mostly solved this. You select number of carry-on and checked bags, and it uses the inclusive price.

Kayak/Google flights/expedia all allow you to select number of carry on and checked bags.
