You are entirely correct. However, I (personally) feel that by pricing it

IMHO, if you want to sell it then it's your right. You coded it, you own
it, you
get to sell it.
But I do know that for $6,000 I sure as hell am not buying it.

if you have questions for the zend guys about their pricing and want to

I never said that obfuscating the code is a requirement for all people.
I'd like to know where I said that. It's easy to make me sound like an
