I know for me personally, I have no intention of every buying another IAP in this game other than the 1019GC for $20 deal (if they ever choose to offer it to me again). None of the others are even close to worthwhile. I have bought some in the past, but over close to 6yrs of playing, it's added up to about $15-20 total.

So, from my standpoint, FM either chooses to get $20 from me occasionally (maybe once or twice a year), or nothing from me, their choice. I know there are many, many of us who feel this way. I personally think their line of thinking is incorrect regarding their idea that they would not see an increase in revenue by decreasing prices, but it is what it is.

I also agree with SweetBerryPie that decreasing the price of the 1019 GC pack dramatically affects the other IAPs. I mean, how much could you sell a 16GC pack for if you can get 1019GC for $20? But, I think that could all be remedied by just reconfiguring the IAPs. Maybe there's no need for a 16GC pack any longer, so replace it with a different one. Maybe the $1.99 pack gets you 40 or 50GC instead?

As far as the $20 GC pack flooding the game with tons of GC? Yeah, I'm sure more people would buy GC packs if the prices were better. But, again, that gives FM more revenue, which is their goal right? Plus, it's not as though it will suddenly allow everyone to get to 100%. Even at $20/1019GC, it would still cost thousands of dollars to buy enough GC to get to 100%. This is how bad the inflation is in this game currently, and it only gets worse with each release adding thousands more GC to the pile.
