I think this is an overly cynical view. Yes, Square-Enix is a company, but a company is made up of individuals that have their own thoughts and feelings and moral concerns. The developers absolutely take pleasure in satisfying their customers and want to make them happy for reasons beyond profit.
If they can be convinced that this is the right thing to do, I believe they'll do it regardless of whatever extremely minor effect it might have on their bottom line. The only reason they've not committed to doing so yet is likely much more due to a misplaced concern about offending their customers than it is about money.
