This is the reality of development when you don't have support from developers - they will follow the money.

Contrast this with early iPhone app development where people were turning out in droves EXCITED to build something.

Apple has lost the trust and enthusiasm of the developer community by making their lives harder and harder over time. Of course they aren't going to lift a finger now unless it will make them money. The same wouldn't be true if Apple provided them the support to get excited about a new platform.
