I suppose there could be a high one time fee with a pay per use option.
I doubt a one time fee. But maybe. The problem I see is:
1) Most attractive to the highest mileage drivers without home charging
2) Disappointing for the occasional user, who is probably the typical M3 customer.

It seems pay per use is unlikely as Super chargers don't have the payment infrastructure right now. I think they will go for subscription model. monthly/yearly/lifetime.
while Tesla may have charged for the hardware to enable supercharging, cars that were not SpC enabled haven't been sold for 2 years, the actual usage of the SpCs is with no additional chargesI believe they already walked back that statement to say "standard supercharging capability", not "free supercharging"... I read that to mean you can "buy" free supercharging for a one time fee of $X,000. I think it would make sense to do it this way, so that city dwellers who don't frequently do long distance driving can save the upfront fee, and perhaps just pay per use in the future? Which means it could be a profit center per the OP's suggestion...
I don't know, I can't comment on vaporwareWas that promised for the model 3? The quote I know is "includes supercharging", which I interpret as the capability being built into the base car.
I guess the flip side of the question is whether totally free supercharging could be included in the price.

I would really like to see the math (profit margins) for a Model3 built in California exported to another market (say Europe or China) and then allowed to "supercharge for free" for the entire lifetime of the car.
Why would Tesla otherwise only mention "capable" (i.e. change its Model3 website) as reported below and not "free"?
Tesla walking back some language around the Model 3’s features: Safety, Autopilot and Supercharger [updated]
Model3 SC access likely either comes with a lump-sum or a per usage fee (software unlock for one of the two), otherwise the math really doesn't add up for a Model3 imo.
This is an old story (article is from April 8th). A non-story in fact. I do not understand why you put it up again.
Tesla never said that all base-price model-3 could use the SuperChargers for free. That is just your interpretation. So no need for anyone to do the math for you on that.
I am also pretty sure this has been explained to you several times already. Please do not bring this up again, not here, not on other forums.
