I suspect it never really occured the grandfather - because there wasnt really any secrecy, this is a community that generally scoffs on secrecy as "a bit silly really" and there appeared to be no harm in spreading possibly interesting knowledge. Not deliberately malicious I am sure. I was going to post it too but checked myself at the last minute.
