It is of course a 50% discount compared to the hardcover list price, but this isn't the same thing as discounting the eBook itself.
It's not the list price according to the Amazon page. I suspect that if we look at the price in six months, it will be discounted more. That's more or less the way that prices go with books. The further away one gets from the initial publication date, the less the book costs.
