Its an inverse economical relationship that in turn delivers help to many people.

Problem is, it gives help to many people who are depositing little or nothing. Those people are a business liability for
MA. If you aren't depositing,
MA is spending processor time, bandwidth, storage space, &c. on you and getting nothing in return. They aren't in this to make sure non-depositors have fun, they are in it to make money.
And dropping the price of FN cuts into the profits (and thus incentive to keep playing) of people who are probably depositing at least now and then.
From a business perspective, it makes sense for sweating to be as boring and low-profit as
MA can possibly make it while still hanging on to new players long enough for them to see how much fun everybody else is having. Hopefully, they realize it will take forever to make money sweating and start depositing, and
MA profits.
And when
MA profits, we still have a game to play.
