At the risk of distracting your query, but not wanting to -- and hence I've 
changed the Subject line -- I'm finding myself also wondering why a 
friendly transfer should cost anything at all, never mind an entire $70.

The NSI charging model lets one make changes to the registration fields for 
free.  If the transfer is a friendly movement, then it is no different from 
any other change of information to the fields.
