Because lwn is operating in the US, and their prices are in dollars, at a certain point, it just isn't worth it to take in a dollar or two from third world countries, even though that may be a lot of money in the local currency, it doesn't do much, if anything, for their bottom line.
The obvious answer? Move lwn to a third-world country, so that their expenses are much lower, and the money they take in goes farther:-)
