Well do you have any idea of the increase in tax burden for the landlord? I imagine most 5 year commercial leases are written this way. Would your spouse rather have a completely unstructured 2, 3 4, and 5 year price?
To my mind, an important question is whether this is a net lease or not. If it is not a triple net lease, then the things that are excluded (property tax, property insurance and/or maintenance) need to be accounted for in determining whether the landlord is gouging his tenant. If it is a net lease, then the tenant will pay the extra costs that are included.
