Because most people don't give a darn about idealism when practicality  
is warranted. Let's not continue this, as it will turn into a holy war  
that is off topic for this list. If you want to debate the ideals of  
free software there are plenty of other places to do it.

   The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a  
thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot  
possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to  
get at or repair.
