Wait, you're complaining that end users can change it?

Yes, there are ways the website could prevent that. I'm not sure why that goal serves any purpose, though. Defaults are going to get them the vast majority of the commissions they earn, and being simple and easy for users who really want to reward the creators more to do so is worth the negligible cost.

Getting commission on sales you make isn't greed.
