Its free if you travel to every location. Which majority of the average player base doesn't do unless you have a reason to go there independently when you know most go there for the first time in a TF . Even if they do they don't get the badge. Along with your second comment and all the and's you had in it. Base teleporter can't be used by the casual/new player who probably isn't or ever will be a base user or in a supergroup. As for your mission teleporter yeah its one of the good ones if you can get it for free with badges. Same cost you can get from the ouro idea if you pay out of pocket with yes a different CD. Everything you are comparing is not to the casual "newby" player. They have to travel to these locations before they can use them. The ouro idea doesn't. Many players who are in TF's and don't have travel options get either left behind and have to jog it out and alot of players are like "why don't you have a, b, or c" items and they don't have any idea what they are talking about. To me the more options we have the more or better a chance a player stumbles upon it. Also to me more options more CDs the better.
