Nor question non-profit discounts, or even startup discounts.

I’m not saying it’s a bad idea.

Only saying it won’t satisfy the people who don’t like the “SSO tax”.

There’s no difference between giving someone a discount vs. charging them less in the first place without a discount.

It’s semantics. It wouldn’t actually change what people end up paying at the end of the day. It’s just framed as a discount instead of an upsell.

Like if airline charged first class prices, but gave a “discount” for accepting an economy seat. (Same thing, just framed differently)

Framing is everything, though. See complaints around Tesla pricing for the same battery hardware with different software.
