Makes perfect buisness sense.
And this is where I turn Marxist. IN my opinion, after successfully getting hundreds upon thousands (millions even) of customers to buy your product, ethically you should not instantly force them to fork out further money to access other content, whether on the disk itself or via marketplace.
You're treating customers as if only their money matters to you. It seems pointless to spend 2 years creating a video game just to instantly alienate/exploit your fanbase so soon after release.
Instead, especially in these times, following release, publishers/developers should try to fix/polish their game to near perfection in order to maintain a fanbase who continuously plays your product. Then, a couple of months down the line add extra DLC.
Customers over profits in my opinion.
Quality over quantity.
