There are good "avoiding litigation" reasons for not discounting. Telling a writer that it's $X for a PDF and $Y for a paperback, but $(X+Y-D) for both together, is saying that we're not going to pay royalties on $D. The reaction is roughly equally bad for the 0 < D < X case and the D = X case, so we go with the D = 0 case to avoid that. We could probably write one of the other cases into the contract instead, but then we'd be sweeping the problem under the carpet of people being unwilling to sign the contract . . .
