Does "Bioshock: the collection" include the original?

If yes, why is it not listed in the package's store page? I see only the remasters, sequels, and DLC.

hello,

yes Bioshock: The Collection does include both Bioshock (original) and Bioshock 2 (original), proof: https://steamdb.info/sub/127633/apps/

the reason they are not included in Store page is because they removed from purchase entirely, you can get them only via buying Remastered counterparts. it is -sorta- Steam feature. you can see the same thing with, for example, Darksiders (original) and Darksiders Warmastered Edition

So the cheapest way to get the original Bioshock on Steam is buying the remaster? I don't need to buy the whole collection?
