A business can also subsidize adverts for "bad" products by profit from "good" products.

Nobody would intentionally chose to do that...
Why? Looks pretty imaginable to me.
Because it would be more profitable to get rid of rather than subsidize the bad product in that scenario.
No, "bad" here is only for consumers, for the business it could be profitable.
Maybe we have a different definition of the word "subsidize" then
