No, because only selling 25.00 hardbacks reduces book sales numbers.

Raising ebook prices reduces sales numbers.

Failing to make books available everywhere reduces sales numbers.

Delays in releasing formats reduces sales numbers.

DRM reduces sales numbers.

Every time you do anything like the above you lose sales for good.
