True, but wouldn't a sliding scale based on commercial success make more sense? How would you measure "worth it" for smaller creators?

Why? If something is wildly popular then there are even more fans who deserve to own their childhood.

"Worth it" would mean someone is willing to pay huge fees for the extension. An exponential scale ensures that nobody can afford it for long.
