Yet we all still go to restaurants. If you want soda buy soda.
This isn't quite the perfect analogy. It would be more like one restaurant (let's call it Westrestaurant) sent out a series of TV, bus, and print ads that say their competitor (let's call them Air Restauranada) charges for soda. We don't. We promise we won't charge you for soda. That's one of the many reasons we're better than Air Restauranada.

And then, less than a year later, inform your customers that you're now charging for that soda you said differentiated you from the others.

Why go to Westrestaurant anymore? They're no different than Air Restauranada.
