Sounds like it's from a place of good intention. If they're also free online, but people can obtain them for a fee from the site you're talking about, then they have a choice.

There is no intrinsic (commercial) value in old trader sheets; copyright is a non-issue.

It's then simply a case of whether the service of providing the sheets for a fee is 'worth it' in the opinion of the person buying them. No-one has to buy anything, and if someone is busy or curious and wants to see a large number of designs, that could be very convenient.
