First of all, this isn't something you "grind" it is something you grind to gamble in the hope you get what you want which is the main issue here.

Yes, companies such as this exist for profit, we all know this; however, this does not excuse them from exploiting players by preying on our addiction. And even if costs are an issue, they already get enough from the other gambling-inducive marketing practices such as the wheel which they have shown no plans on removing it. Even without these gambling tactics, I'm pretty sure they would still be able to afford the expenses needed.
