These are programmers, they think writing code is the highest form of writing and they couldn't be more wrong.

They were speakers attending some conference, so they'd be executives and PR people. Which does make the general disregard for microtransactions bit surprising, at least, because those are exactly the sort of people you'd expect to be all in for monetizing everything they possibly can.
