I don't think they are necessarily "shady". It's a liability issue. If they fix a RFT that has been damaged due to running on low pressure, they'd be liable for it. I've had a RFT plugged and patched. I approached it as (a) assuring the shop I drove on the tire only a few miles under recommended air pressure (my E90), and (b) it's an all-cash transaction with no paperwork (trail).
They had no problem repairing the tire.
