This seems like it just means everyone will pay whatever the highest cost for anyone is. Doesn't seem like it burden's the middle more than anyone else.

This is always the intent when government does not explicitly provide a taxpayer subsidy, because the cash cannot come from the government, otherwise the government’s finances will reflect the higher cash outlay, necessitating higher tax revenue, which could end up with higher tax rates for richer people.
