It's not about 2.6Mb storage space taken.

You are exactly following Microsoft way to telemetry, where there are multiple toggles around the system but telemetry it's already so deeply integrated that you never can be sure if it was completely disabled.
You do benefit not only from your paying customers base but from whole open source community work up to day. Including this portal and all feedback passed automatically/manually from users which run Ubuntu on their hardware. So saying that you don't care about non paying customers seems a bit arrogant here.
