Yeah but that just means theres an incentive to make an anime, not to keep making the anime. Once it's already gotten the anime popularity boost thats generally as popular as its gonna get whether or not you make more seasons of the anime. Thats why we get so many unfinished anime. Their job has been accomplished and they are no longer needed. Continuing from the point of anime success is where it gets iffy and the mangaka might actually lose money. A read the manga ending is intended to accomplish literally that and it usually works on enough people to be worth it sadly.

Eh, a large number of shows don't make it past their first season (including many that annoyingly end on a cliffhanger) and many others don't get real conclusion due to cancellation. I just kinda expect that anime is likely the same rather than anything intentional at work. It's an interesting strategy, though. (And, in the west, certain tv shows -- Buffy, Angel, Smallville, etc -- have continued as comics.)
