It probably helps in some indirect way, where someone ends up really enjoying the game and convinces their friends to buy it, or buys it as a gift for them.
For some of the games, sales have already dried up and they're hoping that giving out the base game for free will ramp up sales for current or upcoming DLC.

I was going through my unredeemed Humble keys earlier today, and one of them was an uPlay key for this game. Well, time to double dip!

...GOG Galaxy 2.0 can’t come fast enough.
I'm on the beta release and it's already good enough that I've begun using just it for installing, playing and uninstalling stuff. I'm slightly worried about the fact that all the major plugins are community made and not actually maintained by GoG, but I've got everything backed up by MFA, so I don't think anyone could do any real damage to my accounts.

The second episode of 3 out of 10, the first episode of which Epic gave away last week, seems to be free at the moment. It may have cost money at some point, or might cost money in the future, but it does not cost money in the present.

if this is the same thing they did with hitman 2, it's a free version that you can also play the entirety of the first two games in if you owned them

Can confirm that if you get the free starter for Hitman 3 and own Hitman 1 on Epic (which was a freebie at some point), you can add the Hitman 1 GOTY DLC for free. It'll show up with a price until checkout, but should be free there. So yeah, free Hitman 1 on a new engine with a single level of Hitman 3 shouldn't be a bad deal.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1560330/Utopos/

Utopos, an early access game which is not normally free, is free for today.

"Utopos is back! The original Utopos launched almost 30 years ago in 1993, but the magic is still there. Utopos is a multiplayer spaceship arena fighting game. Utopos is easy to pick up and provides countless hours of fun action with your friends!

Situated at the Asteroid Belt, Utopos is a colonized world inhabited by humans who left the earth in the search of a better life. Rocketship fights have become a popular sport and it's up to you to fight your way to the top. Choose your ship and weapons and fight against other players to see how is the ultimate rocketship fighting champion!

While Utopos is a multiplayer game, it also provides AI-controlled bots that fight just like humans, so you can train on your own too.

Try Utopos with a friend - this is quite possibly the most fun you've had in ages!"

Says it's a remake of an old game I've never heard of. Looks like Auts and other freeware classics.

Yeah, Bloodstained is in the monthly that will be charged in...a week or so. I'm debating whether to pause or not because of it as well. On one hand, cheap games, on the other, cheap games that'll probably show up for free at some point.

Heads up for anyone who has a Classic Choice subscription on Humble. It looks like they've opened up (or hosed up) an extra 2 claims for 2019-2020, allowing you to grab all the games for all months before January 2021. Looks like they already ran out of keys for This Is The Police 2, so act quick.

Note - if you bought either the racial justice bundle on itch.io, or the palestinian justice one, you already own Celeste there.

EDIT:
While I'm here, I also got codes for:
*Pillars of Eternity
*EVERSPACE
*Xenonauts
*Shadowrun Returns
*Shadowrun: Hong Kong - Extended Edition
*Shadowrun: Dragonfall - Director's Cut

I'm up for Xenonauts if it's still available. Heard it's supposed to be a pretty good classic X-COM.

Edit: Many thanks to Gun Jam!

Everyone complaining about bots should do what I do and make every user (and myself) jump through the steamgifts hoop for free games. It also makes it slightly fairer for everyone since it's a draw rather than a free for all.
