That'll probably drive more people to wait for PDF bundles...

like on Humble bundle? Yeah...I was thinking that. Alternatively do the subscriptions where you get physical and then PDF is free.

Yeah, it's not that rare for there to be PDF-only Pathfinder 2E bundles on Humble Bundle (and now Fanatical, which currently has a PF2e bundle up). I haven't noticed any Starfinder 2E bundles yet, but there probably will be once the system is older and there's more official content available. Considering that one can (legally) read rules text and stat blocks on Archives of Nethys, it's less urgent to own a copy of the rules for either system, so it's easier to wait for a bargain.

Dang. That's quite a price jump on core PDFs.

Based on the way they normally do these, I think we'll have to wait until there's a bit more Starfinder Society and a few APs before they have enough material for a SF bundle, I think. Then again, in all the time I was paying attention I think I only saw 1 SF1e bundle. (I must have pledged at the $1 level because all I have is the SF1e player core - or whatever the thing was called back then)
