I guess it’s similar to comparing a $100,000 sports car to a $100 bicycle. The bicycle is a lot better than walking, but surprisingly a 1000x price difference is considered reasonable even when both products carry out the same superficial function. Here the price difference is only 100x. Certainly Bloomberg is a much better value proposition (functionality divided by cost), but of course there is a market for cheaper and less capable options.
