It's probably similar to the Oil industry. They buy up any patents that may be even the smallest competition and shelve them, ignoring the fact that it can save/help millions of people. They have a good thing going for them now so they're gonna ride it out and then later, maybe they'll look at some of these other ideas. They're motto is "If it ain't broke, don't fix it!" ....although we're becoming broke because of it.
