SkyQ costs
Why are there no good deals for Sky Q?
Why do the Sky stores on the high street not offer Sky Q?
I assume from the above Sky are not offering good deals to force Customers onto Sky Stream or Sky Glass.

Re: SkyQ costs
Q is a decade old and has a few years remaining before the satellites broadcasting to it reach end-of-life with the expenditure of their positioning propellant. It's also a product which pre-dates the acquisition of Sky Group by the Comcast Corporation*, and naturally they prefer to promote what's effectively 'their' online-only platform.
* famously a cable television company

@Scott+MacG encourage rather than force but it is fairly clear that SKY's future is Streaming and not Satellite which only has a few years left before the Satellites run out of fuel.
Also don't forget that SKY Q support requires Engineers (albeit less of them now on the workforce) which are an overhead
