Logos 7 Basic question

Why are all those interlinears included in the basic package if only two Bibles are included (21 interlinears)?  Is this just to induce those who use the basic package to purchase additional Bibles?  Just wondering, not criticizing.

    I assume so that if a Logos Basic user either has previously purchased, or chooses to purchase, one of the other Bibles they will have RI capability for them.

    I assume most users going for the basic package would not have purchased anything else before getting the basic package.  I know I got the basic version after getting some other packages and I got a few free things that had not been included in any of the packages I had bought.

    I can see that someone may have purchased their preferred Bible to use with Logos - maybe on a mobile device - and so the addition of reverse interlinear capability in Logos 7 Basic would be helpful

    But It's all speculation on my part!

    I know one individual who has been a user for numerous years but has yet to purchase a base package. I am not sure if he has any interlinear capacity at all but being a person who just wants to purchase various books if he had Basic he could easily use them (I believe he primarily uses the KJV so not a grand need for all the ones but nice he has access to them). I can well imagine numerous people I know being more happy to enter FL this way. Although most would be more wanting the NRSV but don't expect FL to give access to everything away. Although it may be included in Verbum Basic for whatever reason a resource listing is not available on the verbum basic page now.
