What's more important is that it sets a ceiling for scalpers profit. This is lower than the XBox+bundle price, even if you wouldn't buy the subscription, because you do get the subscription, no one will pay the same price for just the XBox, my guess would be a small market for half the subscription price, which is barely worth scalping over.
