Not so strange because these books are not being sold, and there is no commercial aspect to it.
Just the pursuit of knowledge and even books that have beliefs that are contrary to theirs but they are making them public and free to access. Even books written about Jesus that didn't make it into the Bible and were considered heresy. All of the books are being digitized for educational purposes and free to access to the public.
Will Merke give out free drugs, will the banker forgive loans and give out interest free loans, will the laundromat give out free soap? Nope, because they are commercial and in it for the profits and money.
This move by the Vatican is not about profits, but more about freeing the information in these books for the public to benefit from for free.
