Yes, I see the issue here but I would hardly call that a click bait, more like a pricing tool not working correctly but no matter where or what I'm buying I check the prices are the same throughout the checkout.
I have over 100 domains with them. I do not plan to move them away either.

But, what they are doing is a pretty scammy way to do it. It is not something broken. They have a note there, that I missed the first few times I was in there, saying:

"The prices listed above are for non-premium domains. If you select a premium domain, the sale price will be shown once you add the domain to your cart."

You have no idea if it is a premium domain before it goes into the cart. As I said, I missed the note several times. In fact I did not notice it until I was posting the gif I recorded.

So, it appears that it is purposeful on their part.

I sometimes, especially with vendors I trust, move through the checkout quickly and don't necessarily pay the attention I should. On Namesilo I will not be doing that anymore.

They are still a good registrar, I think.
