Stop moaning. You will need the HL engine to play TF - even if you don't want to play single player. That's what you pay for. Besides - the amount of copies of TF sold will be minimal compared to the amount of single user copies sold. Multiplayer games always overestimate the importance of multiplayer gaming (I play MP too by the way - so I am not a biased SP gamer). As you know - you can play deathmatch for free with your regular copy of HL. TF is a different animal - so why complain about having to pay for it.
