What they are doing, like all for-profit companies, is focusing on profits, for better or worse.

What you are suggesting (and what I'd like to) directly works against the goal of making more profits, literally all of those things will lead to less income for them.

I also want those things, but realistically, because of the economic systems we have, those things will never be the focus, because the market doesn't reward those things, and doesn't seem likely that'll change either.

I don't know what the solution is either, status quo simply sucks, with no escape in sight. Seems to be getting worse in fact.
