The fat chocobo and the wind-up moogle were introduced way after the game's release (as of 2.0 version). It wasn't included or announced in the original CEs, yet SE gave them to all existing CE accounts. That made a lot of people (customers) happy and thankful, and more willing to keep supporting such an amazing company and dev team.

However, if it was today, I'm sure that they would had made us buy them from the Mog Station (see event items). That change is not cool.
