Seriously, just do the right thing. Goddamn

The right thing costs 1% more can't waste that

Probably costs .1% more.

It's probably cheaper to do the right thing. It'd allow them to have a single product line, rather than two. However, it'd mean they can't screw over customers and sell them replacements, so it'd cost them in additional sales.
