The BBC obviously has to justify its own existence, and the licence fee, by ensuring it is as widely available and adapts to consumer behaviour. Otherwise, the tax would easily be swept aside by a political party aspiring for votes at a General Election.
I've covered on a number of occasions the very low bar that is the threshold for it to remain worthwhile broadcasting linear television because of how cheap it actually is for a company who already holds the rights to the programming.
