Where do you get the idea that its uncommon? Most of the registrars charge for whois protection. So its pretty common.
So what that its "free"? Handjobs are also free, but some women charge for it, lol.
Whois privacy is additional and very good service for some people so its natural that service that is good and needed is being charged for. Even if that service takes few seconds of labor resources for registrars to implement.
