I don't get it. It's a 3-ring binder with more rings and 10 cents worth of loose leaf paper.
You pay more because pages are more secure and durable, plus the system is more versatile than a 3-ring binder. Like most improvements on traditional things you decide if the cost is worth it. Someone probably couldn't understand the need for a 3-ring binder at some point in time, too.
Different strokes for different folks...

This is one of several brands of discbound planners.

I like the way the disc binding works, but I have not sprung for a proper paper punch, so I have some loose sheets trying to get away...

3-ring binders don't come in this size (at least that I'm aware of).

Great deal for these, wonder if you can easily attach something on the covers just to mellow out the bright color.

3-ring binders don't bend over backwards for you.

That said, this stuff is indeed more expensive than the typical binder. And it's difficult to find my preferred size (½" inner diameter). So I started buying cheap discs from aliexpress. Refills are inexpensive if you punch your own. And you can punch your own covers if you have a sturdy enough punch.

I used to use the Levenger kinds of these, because you could easily rearrange notes... now I do the same thing via the GoodNotes app for iPad Pro.
