I agree. In that case people who use includes in their scripts for which they got paid should pay a portion of their pay to the writer of each include they use.

Undoubtedly I will get myself flamed for suggesting this, but perhaps it
may pay for you to be a little more attentive to the bounties that are
on offer. The bounty offered may utilise a lot of your code, but a
library without an interface (be it a user interface or a technical
interface) is just a blob of code.

If developing the end user code doesn't interest you, that's fine - but
don't take it out on people who take your work that extra step to make
it do what someone else is willing to offer money for.
