Customers on Getty Images and a number of other well paying content licensing houses love hard-R rated versions of content to be used on stories, etc that are adult related or niche related. $300-$600 per image. Most producers like me take pics of the model fully dressed and in varying stages of undress so we have R & Hard-R content to license to mainstream.

Do you have any clue about the content industry?
The cost of equipment, models, locations, etc. Then all the normal expenses of running a business. To justify that and get a decent living you have to sell at $3,000-$6,000 per set. Selling an image for $300-$600 is a nice sideline, add on, bonus but not enough to fund a real photography organisation.
We sold sets for $3,000-$6,000 to magazines, then sold online for another $1,000. Without it people don't have studios, staff, and basically operating a one man band. The level of people in the online content game before magazines folded tells you where the real money was.
TBH if we didn't have such a great income from magazines we to would have gone hell for leather into the paysite market.
