That's the point. Government (and most corporate) purchasing policies are to keep dumb people from making mistakes. "It it only costs 20 cents, then it must be worth 20 cents". Same thing bundled with support so it costs money makes it easier to get free software into the organization. It makes an otherwise new thing seem very normal, very similar to what they've done in the past, so its not such a risk to go for it.
