> Note that the (edit: US) postal system is a for-profit system.

Pricing in the US postal system is not based on maximizing profit. Ths US postal system is not a for-profit system, at all. It is a delivery system (more or less) that happened to start turning a profit (2006) until PAEA. After that, the next time it made a profit was 2025.
