I'm not even counting this as a 6-tool deal, since a flashlight is as much of a tool as a napkin is a tool for wiping your face.

Plus dusty work, which is common in working with building materials, eats up brushes on tools like no tomorrow, whereas a brushless will keep on ticking virtually forever in those conditions.

Your childish comparison to a "writing in space" or being an "asbestos crew cleanup worker" is just as ridiculous as your thought processes truly are, in this tool topic.
Do you really have no connection to reality?, where drills, saws, and the various other tools actually and very commonly do create dusty condition (without the lunacy extremes like asbestos being involved) by drilling and sawing into common building materials (concrete, wood, steel/metals, etc).
But go ahead and be my guest at 'thinking' that your brushed motor will last anywhere near as long as as my 'fuel' brushless motored tools. You are only showing the knowledge & experience that you lack.
These are home-owner/hobbyist kits and I can assure you that 99.9% of people won't be able to wear out any drill unless they abuse it.
To me you sound like someone trying to justify overpaying for his tools. Well, at least you got a deal on your batteries.

No where did I say or imply that this had anything to do with the construction trades or the use of power tools on ones job. My use of the words "working with building materials" does NOT mean anything limited to the construction trades.
A homeowner or hobbyist is "working with building materials" every time he or she is using these tools. Even a homeowner or hobbyist is typically "building" something when they use these tools.
It may be something as simple as a cutting board, or mounting a small utility pump on a concrete base/pad, or any one of countless & various other projects.
You are still using "building materials", which is wood, concrete, metal, etc.
The words I used are generic words, not specific to the construction trades.
Now, how may times have you replaced electric motor brushes and had to rebuild small electric tool motors? I'm 100% confident in saying you have never done it, even once.
While I have done it far too many times to count over the years.
I can also see that you don't have the mechanical and tool experience to understand the actual details of how brushed motors get damaged by the particles of the material you are drilling, cutting, or grinding. So therefore you'll never fully understand this subject matter because of that.
You likely use these type of power tools even less than 1% of the time and hours that I, as well as millions of others, use our power tools. And we are not using them for 'on the job' or the construction trades.
So comparing YOUR needs to mine is like night and day, and naturally you may be fine with brushed motored tools that will likely see only minimal use, whereas if I used these cheap brushed motor tools, the motors would be needing new brushes several times over their life, as well as putting higher draw on the battery in the last 50% of their pre-brush replacement life.
Millions of ppl like me realize that med-heavy to heavy use on brushed tools results in tools that put a far heavier load on the battery, as that tool's brushes wears, due to the mentioned particles/dust. It's a very real and proven issue for us, yet obviously not for you.
Why do you even think all the power tool mfgs have developed brushless tools?
There's millions of ppl who actually do use their power tools on a heavy regular basis, even as just homeowners and hobbyists, and make the brushless version a near necessity.
There's also millions of ppl, like you, who have these tools sitting 99% of the time and don't use them that much at all, so your needs will be far different than the above group.
Bottom line, simply put:
Your choice of the cheaper brushed models is fine for you, but would be the absolute worst and most unwise choice for me and millions of others (who also are not using them for employed work), in our heavier use of power tools.
You appear to be in the light/minimal power tool use group like "Shop_shop_Shop", so my reply to him/her (above) applies here also.

Also, we're not talking about Ryobi batteries here, which I wouldn't pay even $10 for per AH. $15 per AH for Milwaukee premium batteries is pretty good. Get your facts straight.
EDIT:
I just got an idea that will make your pedantic-self very happy. How about we count this as 10$ per AH, so the tools end up being around $55 each. All better now?
Well played, sir
