1. Valid idea. How to handle the abuse is the question i suppose. I'm sure what the team would say is that they would honor a DAO vote on this.

2. Your right it doesn't have infinite money. So the community would want to decide if this is going to benefit new users, land holders and those with cards to rent to them. Maybe we compare other efforts for new users and to benefit land.

3. We fully agree that if we receive payment from the DAO to develop features that don't make us money that they for sure shouldn't cost.

On our side consider the countless hours developing free services to attract users with the business in mind they may use the 1-2 things that help the business. (While also creating things simply to help the ecosystem so it survives and flourishes) When after many years we did create a premium product we didn't retroactively make those services cost anything but when our own users asked for some new features we asked ourselves how could we make a service that rewarded their loyalty. We felt there were a few things we could create that could be premium with a low cost for the premium service and then later we even gave ways to avoid the cost of premium with multiple other ways to get that service besides the premium. We felt like a premium subscription was a pretty normal approach.
