Might be human nature.
Fee. People will pay huge 'fees' for some feature or access, or privilege.
Fine. People will riot in the streets if the exact same value was applied as a fine or a tax. 'what a huge fine, that is totally un-fair'.
A fee makes it seem like a choice.
A fine, everyone is mad, even people that it wont ever apply too.
