They are still in business. Therefore they can afford the "free" service.
Therefore the cost of this "free" service is built into the price of the
headsets.

As I already pointed out, you have no idea whether they are losing money on
the free service or not (and thus, whether "the cost of this 'free' service
is built into the price of the headsets"). Just because they are still in
business today, that doesn't mean they will be in business tomorrow.

But the alternative (not providing the service) would likely ensure they
would not be in business "tomorrow".

My call is David Clark.

Suit yourself. I fly with neither Lightspeed, nor DC. There are several
good headset manufacturers to choose from. I find the "Dave Clamp" moniker
well-earned by the David Clark models, but lots of people do love their
headsets, no doubt about it.
