> The revenue from a few ads on the free tier in exchange for limited queries to GPT-5.3 is negligible

So why chase this negligible revenue?

I suspect so that they get people used to ads so they can spam them with enough to make it not negligible. If they put millions of ads all over the page right away, it would turn everyone off. If they do the boiling frog thing and ease you into it, then people might not notice.
