This business is just too intimate and personal to contrast or analogize it to a typical buyer/seller transaction; so all those comparisons are meaningless...

In fact, the reasons you give for being okay with it are the same reasons you'd be glad if any service provider said, "You might be better served going elsewhere." (a) You don't want to spend money on something less than satisfactory, and (b) a service provider who will turn away a sale rather than provide inferior service indicates a concern for customer satisfaction.
Where's the difference?
