Yes. At the *very least*, you've got one more product on the market that
supports it. It's just like having one more computer running Linux.

IMO, Green Ronin fully realized what could happen, and was well aware of the
reasoning for allowing non-open content in modules. I doubt that they would
complain if you printed their module, as, (IIRC) you couldn't use their
names.
And more to the point, it's doubtful that you *could* undercut their price
on a printed module. If you can, go right ahead--they might decide to ask
you to print for them. (Or, just decide that your version is inferior, and
trust that their superior version will draw sufficent sales.)
