It is non-stick if the seasoning is right, but often it's not smooth enough off the shelf.

People being able to find a way around isn't a good rationale for not putting up roadblocks in the first place. It's basically the same argument that's used against gun regulations.

Cheap doesn't mean disposable. I have a bunch of shirts that are a decade old and still fine that I got for less than $3 a piece on clearance.

The markup on most things you buy in the store is very high, sometimes 10x or more. That, combined with the fact that product that isn't being moved is wasting money, means you'll occasionally see things marked down drastically just to get rid of it. There's a good chance that they're still making a profit on it too.
