You aren't paying to get rid of ads, you're paying to get music. Ads pay for the music, or money can. It's only paying to get rid of ads if you view the music as an inevitable outcome, and this change is Spotify asserting that's not the case.

Since the free plan includes music, they obviously aren't paying to get it.

No, payment is giving money to something. Spotify itself says the ad-infested plan is free.
