Deluxe editions of games are anti-consumer even if it is an upgrade. Just sell the whole fucking game to me or don't sell anything at all.

So you'd much rather pay $60 for helldivers 2 than $40? Because that's the monetary difference between standard and deluxe.

Deluxe editions are generally for people who want extra fluff in their game. Not everyone wants the fluff and they shouldn't pay for things they don't want. Your idea "makes sense" only if you assume they're going to give away deluxe stuff for free and the final price of the product doesn't increase, which frankly is just naive thinking.
