There's a huge middle-ground between pure artistic pursuit and callous profit maximization.
Plenty of the bigger non-profit games (like FOSS games) have easy modes. I'm actually having a hard time trying to think of ones which don't. And I'd call them all niche and indie, made primarily for enjoyment over market interests. In games like STK, it's clear from the bug tracker and forum that the primary devs (passionate and experienced players) are trying to balance their intended experience against accessibility - if some of them just made the game how they think it should be played, it would be very different.
