They shouldn't subsidize it but they should at least sell it without profit.
The increase in price from 512GB to 2TB is more than what consumers would pay which shows they are profiting. It's even cheaper to get the 512GB version and buy a 2TB SSD yourself, plus you'd still have the 512GB drive for other things.
