Part of the overhead is writing and playtesting the rules,
editing them and so on. If this overhead is removed, then
there's more room to profit from the actual sale of the
material, since the 'only' overhead is publishing.
If free content material is published, then the FRPGC could
be a for-profit publishing house. It makes some money from
publishing content as hard copy, authors get a 'free' hard
copy version of their rules.
