I agree with your opinion. But, it is the principle that bothers me. The power company is using the sale of surge protectors as a gimmick to add to their profits. I have not seen any evidence to support the need for a surge protector on every house, and if they were really needed, the design engineers would have included the surge protection into the original system design.
