Just out of curiosity - how much to they cost?

Apple: Additional TSIs are available for purchase in either a 2-pack for 99 USD or 5-Pack for 249 USD (or in local currency where available) in the Code-Level Support section of your account. TSIs purchased separately expire one year from the date of activation. Seems like you save a few pennies per incident with two packs unless you really need an odd number.

  What weird pricing. Why not just make them $50 each? Or $49 if they have a policy that prices end with the digit 9.

    Because it raises the barrier to entry and probably has a serious impact on the number of issues raised.

    Forcing multiple-unit pricing likely increases sales. You probably came to the purchase page just needing one. But you’re probably 𝖽̶𝖾̶𝗌̶𝗉̶𝖾̶𝗋̶𝖺̶𝗍̶𝖾̶ motivated enough to pay extra for a bundle of two if you have to! You’ll justify it by telling yourself “I might need the second one later”, but I’ll bet a lot of them end up going unused. Raising the entry price slightly perhaps also makes people think a little harder about whether they really need to use a TSI or whether other support channels (Stack Overflow? Reddit?) might be more appropriate.

      But why would you ever buy they 5 pack? Is the purchasing a real hassle? At least with the 2 pack you are probably only going to waste one.

        I could imagine a corporate customer who might be slightly less cost sensitive but have employees that would prefer not to go through a purchase order approval process multiple times might be where purchases like that get made
