Makes literally no sense to me that Reddit couldn’t afford to provide a price exception to 3rd party apps that have helped grow their community and website over the years. I’ve been using Reddit Is Fun for almost a decade now, and I’m not switching to their official app.
Companies are getting too comfortable when they have no competition. Really hope a Fediverse alternative will kick off like Mastodon did (ironically I’m placing my bets on kbin even though I use Lemmy. Seems like the simpler alternative that’ll be easier to invite people over).
You can. Companies do it all the time. Being grandfathered in is why people still pay pences on their cellphone plans from major providers, for example. I don’t think it’s the answer in this particular scenario, though.

You can’t charge apps differently for the same stuff or people will sue you.
Reddit wants to bring them all down. I wouldn’t be surprised if they take down the entire API in a year to save money.

What are you talking about? Anyone working in B2B sales know there are no such things as list prices. Everything is negotiated.
