Maybe? It's all about tradeoffs.
I could see why you would want to figure out how much value the MVP is creating, and $$$ is an honest way to do that.
It sounds like two things are happening with the MVP: - emphasis on more complicated sites with more data (higher propensity to pay) - this functionality is actually possible but a user needs to take the time to set it up via a the GUI.
Feels like a pretty good tradeoff to me.
