I would bet humble bundles pays a fee to provide steam keys.

Every single game download costs valve ~0¢ but all of them together costs them millions.

The current system is not fair and reasonable to consumers. Allowing free transfers wouldn't be fair to the stores.

I for sure know which version I prefer, but I'm just saying there is a reasonable, good faith argument against free/unlimited transfers
