>Why should the author care whether their price scales to Photoshop level?

The author shouldn't. Buyers should care what they're charged.

>Pricing is hard, because it is not intuitive. And more importantly, the value of something is often subjective. People tend to forget that.

And subjectivity often leads to stupid personal buying decisions. People tend to forget that.



No one is getting scammed here, even if it cost 1000x as much. Why are you saying buyers don't know what they are charged?

> stupid personal buying decisions

Why does it affect you so much what other people are doing with their money? Spoiler alert: it is none of your business, and you are taking it way too personal.


>No one is getting scammed here, even if it cost 1000x as much. Why are you saying buyers don't know what they are charged?

I'm obviously not saying they are blindly charged an amount that they don't know.

I'm saying that they are buying stuff influenced by the minimalist fashion/emotion/etc and they don't know they're overpaying for no good reason.

>Why does it affect you so much what other people are doing with their money?

Because I live in a society, not in the wilderness. What people do with their money affects everybody, and people making better decisions is good for society in general.

>Spoiler alert: it is none of your business, and you are taking it way too personal.

While answering to me is "your business"? And getting into direct personal comments (as opposed to making a general remark)?
