Blu-ray follows a business model to make profit (profit is necessary for businesses to exist). A Profile 2.0 player at the beginning would have costed WAY more than $1,000 at launch. Tiers were created to decrease to cost associated with making Profile 2.0 players and increase profits.

HD DVD's only card to play has always been price. Therefore, the BDA had to cut costs to compete better against HD DVD's prices.
