A closer analogy might be selling uncooked food that is safe for people with a peanut allergy and then one day adding peanuts as an ingredient after they’ve paid for a shipment.

Personally I’d rather not buy from them in the first place but there is likely a benefit to showing Linux users will buy it if you treat them right.
