No ads. That makes sense - I don't want to see ads that close to my face when struggling to read an already-tiny screen.

As a customer... the "free" line is upsetting and confusing. I would like to pay for good apps instead of relying on hobbyists adding their idiosyncratic-use-case features rather than the features I want.

This sounds like a rule made by a programmer/dev. I have to imagine it'll change once the device is available widely to consumers.

You will be able to, buy paying for non-free web services that provide no-additional-charge Glass apps. Glass isn't designed as a standalone app platform, and the features it exposes to apps don't really encourage apps that are independent of some broader service that is also used on a non-Glass device.
