Like slot machines and other games with micro transactions (like on mobile or online), having an uneven currency conversion helps confuse people estimation of their spendings.
Also, these types of games could potentially gain a faster adoption over other business types, as it can be "exploited" as a game specific currency to the masses, they could even profit from swapping locally or keeping custodial wallets for their customers.

Not at all, I know people being ruined by those things, so I'd rather avoid them.

Not for profit, but to avoid following those shady patterns by mistake.
