Whys
Such things don't require a plot. It's a matter of incentive. While the developers may be genuine in their approach, it also seems evident that the modding community is not considered a significant incentive. I personally think that's a mistake. The modding community has always had the potential of being the greatest asset.
Unfortunately, I don't think the developers are completely without guilt when it comes to the cynicism on this issue. Truth is, most of the real whiners have come and gone. Anyone still here, reading these threads, is a die hard that would love to love this game. So at this point, I think the complaints are pretty legitimate.
I don't mean to pick on the developers; maybe it's management's fault. {shrug}
