Not at all.  Tony's still making a profit by selling System 6.0.1 on disk.
Many people will still need AWGS on disk.

HyperCard for GS is System Software (the same status I'm proposing
to make AWGS) and yet Mike at ByteWorks can still sell the
official HyperCard for the Apple IIGS on disk for a profit (as
well as the manuals).

Tony's already selling AWGS for such a low price that it is
basically just a disk copying fee, so this reclassification won't
harm him a bit.
