The only problem is, that GOG would then have an even greater incentive to increase the disparity between Galaxy and offline installers. I Galaxy users pay extra, GOG will say that this justifies to treat them as first class customers and all others as annoying ballast.
I'm confident in the gamble even though I know if I'm wrong it would be an even worse store for people like me. I strongly believe the "client-loving modern gamers", who GOG (via pouring tons of resources into Galaxy) chases after with the zeal of Pepe le Pew, are not going to be able to hold up their end of the deal.
So to me, it is worth the gamble. Let's see how irrationally committed GOG is to Galaxy (i.e. if they were to persist with pushing it even if it were to be revealed to be a money loser) and how committed the modern gamers are to GOG (i.e. will they pay a fee to use Galaxy), by putting both parties to the test.
