Subaru makes money off Toyota selling these things too y'know. I'm sure when they were approached, they understood that Toyota could shove these cars out onto the streets better than they could.

This. Doesn't matter which one sells more, sales overlap would be irrelevant. They are going to be produced at the same factory, on the same lines, the only important thing is that they sell. Both Subaru and Toyota will rake in cash.
