The truth is that we're a large (and in the west) rich world. We can
easily support market segmentation; in fact the market demands it and
is improved by it. WotC tried it your way and have decided that it's
in its own interest to pass on it in the future. Given that they have
all the financial facts at their finger tips and you don't, I'll take
their word over yours and any number of Internet fanboys.
If you think they're wrong, then do it yourself and toss WotC into the
dustbin. Proof is in the pudding, etc. etc. If there is significant
growth there, it's for the taking.
I on the other hand think their decision is reasoned and likely wise.
There is no significant growth to be had, just a small market that
WotC will be making the best of.
