Value based pricing is not about obfuscating your product.

If you manage to get extra revenues because the market values what you have you can invest the surplus to more better products.

The point is, you shouldn't dictate what users value your product, let the users dictate it.

"Imagine a world, where progress and invention would be something shared and done not out of greed but out of ability and ultimately generosity that would add to the grace of our race."

The first gotcha there is figuring out what exactly is the grace of the race. Most entities that successfully employ these sort of mission statements are dictatorships and the like and I'm sure you didn't mean that.

I think the first hurdle to get over is that world is complex and us people are not smart enough to handle all of that.
