Bonus is not a bonus

Why is it that most eBooks that tout having bonus material isn't actually giving us anything that's a bonus? All it is usually is just a excerpt from the next book in the series or the newest book from the author. Why call it a bonus when calling it an excerpt it more honest? I don't think bloating the eBook with a preview is a bonus. I always strip the bonus excerpt out because for one, it gives an incorrect word count as it's not part of the book I am going to be reading.

It's a marketing ploy that's a lie.
