Because you’re comparing apple to oranges, even if it seems like the same service, is a tiny portion of what google offers.
Google sells it’s suite as a whole. Gdrive ties into you email, drop a file and it links to drive, calendar, sharing permissions, Enterprise/Organization settings, including everything its proprietary technology (sheets, docs, slides, Photos etc…) can do with Drive.
Of course google wants to push you to the premium tier, and doesn’t need to offer as good of a deal to do so because you already get so much for free. I’m not arguing it’s not more expensive, but people pay for all that convenience from a “trusted” brand that 99% of people know how to use.
