I wrap Opus 4.5 in a consumer product with 0 economic utility and people pay for it, I'm sure plenty of end users are willing to pay for it in their software.

Edit: I'm not using the term of art, I mean it literally cannot make them money.

Sorry, how do these two things go together?

If people pay for it, it has economic utility, doesn't it? I mean, people pay to watch movies or play video games, too.
