I figured out why Apple decided the sell the iphone 5c at discount instead of the iphone 5.

That diamond cut chamfered edge unibody is very difficult, time consuming and expensive to make. They need all the capacity they can get for the iphone 5s and selling the iphone 5 would take that away. It also saves tons of money. And they are making even more by selling cases specifically designed for the 5c

Its purely a financial decision and not because they want to make the more engaging, personal and most entertaining iphone. Thats just marketing talk.
