I very recently left Apple retail and here are a couple of insights for what it's worth.
#1 They don't want someone who is excited about their new phone getting home and realizing they don't have a way to charge it.
#2 Apple really doesn't want you to buy a charging block if you already have one and they will happily take your old ones for recycling. It is definitely my sense that they want less charging blocks in the world.
I don't think it's all about the money first and I would imagine that because there is a cost associated with recycling, the money to pay for it must come from somewhere.

Oh, and +1 on recycling for a discount on a new one!! ♥️
