That seems to be the general atmosphere, "leaving money". They probably analysed it and thought it wasn't worth the effort. Companies like to make money after all.

If all the economic news from the games industry from the last year or so should have taught you anything: No. Shortsighted whims of shareholders are not proper financial analysis. The same people who also concluded years ago that leaving Steam and going exclusively to Origin was a good idea are definitively not the sharpest tools in the shed.
