Is it really that expensive for them to run? Last time I heard it was a a minuscule amount per request, and peanuts for the certificate itself.

That depends whether they are using a CDN. CDN's charge a lot more for HTTPS
Does $5/month sound a lot for a product/service from a real business? How much do you charge for your product/service?
As a user, I know that a lot of "just $5 a month" services add up quite quickly, especially if they're not tools you use every day or as part of a workflow.
Of course not, but pro will be funding their infrastructure as a whole
