They are probably not doing the IDV themselves, they are using a another service that charges per ID.
Now, it maybe ridiculous that they are passing the cost through, but it's actually interesting that it is a option that people can choose or not.
If they didn't do this, they would just increase the costs by 60c for everyone.
Which would be a better customer experience for everyone in the end and probably save time and money for Ryanair.
