I knew this was going to happen sooner or later. Trust nintendo to sell the same hardware over and over again.

Well it's mainly because they can sell it. If the N64 and Gamecube were hits, I say they would have had revisions as well.

true, I'm going to get one regardless. It just sucks because they do this on purpose.

But it wasn't for the purpose of milking. First of all, if the gyroscopes had been as small as they needed in 2005, or even 2006, they would have been included in the controller at launch. But the earliest ones reportedly were available in 2008 or 2009, which is when the Motion Plus launched.
Anyway, at that time, they could have included it in the Wiimote itself, but that would have been forcing customers to pay even more money for not only the extra motion control, but for a controller they already have. That was why the Motion Plus was optional, so that you would only have to buy the dongle.
This is not meant for people to buy all new controllers if they already have a Wiimote and Motiuon Plus. This is for people that want to get another one, or who haven't already.

AHEM!
Actually they were already small enough, and cheap too, in 2004:
