Including TFS (and some other features) in MSDN Pro has another benefit: it makes it possible to use these features when working with offshore outsourcing partner. It is no secret, that offshore development is all about cost, so to keep the cost down the offshore partners limit the money they are willing to pay for development tools. Having extra $2000 per developer means extra 96c per hour, which can reach 5% of the hourly rate. Which means that either the company risk losing business or the developer will be underpaid.
So this is really a smart move from Microsoft side.
