The other host is actually providing more value by including the server in the $X fee, so it should be easier for you to match since you're not offering that. What am I missing?

A host might sell a Celeron with 512MB of RAM as a 100Mbps unmetered server for $600. They are hoping that you will not use all of this bandwidth -- it's difficult (though possible) to use that much bandwidth using such a low-end server. With a cross-connect, it's much more likely that you'll use all allotted bandwidth since you can effectively connect up as many servers as you need to.
