You really want to solve a conspiracy? ;-)

Tell my why window installation companies are SO GOSH DARN cagey about their pricing? So cagey that when I go looking for articles about how it is impossible to find online prices for something as simple as a window, I find nothing but articles agreeing with me—but still NO PRICES? Why? What is the big deal? Are there really high precentage profit margins to reap from all the people who haven’t compared prices? Is every job, every single goddamn job THAT unique? No way. No way in hell. 4sq ft of pane, and 4ft of pvc, and some hardware, hinging, etc. CAN NOT BE A PRICE MYSTERY.

I’m affably baffled.
