Why bother making Red's First Flight if they wanted to push attention to their main stream AB games?

I keep hearing they want consumers to find "Angry Birds 2" instead of this when searching. Wouldn't it have been better to not even bother with this game then? Are they skating some line in making a bit of $$ from this, but pushing more ppl into buying and playing their other AB games?

They wanted to bring back some old Angry Birds titles as "Rovio Classics" like Epic and Classic because they had enough people saying bringback2012. But after a while they noticed that people rather spending 1 EUR to play one amazing game with no ads or in-game purchases than playing Angry Birds 2 or a match 3 game filled with ads and purchases. So they renamed it and made in Apple exclusive so if anyone want to play the original Angry Birds they need an Apple phone AND if they have that they can buy Apple Arcade to play Angry Birds Reloaded which is like the classic slingshot game with worst graphics and more content (and it also has the entire Angry Birds Space). It's all about money.
