They don't really have a choice. Your publication record is the most important factor you're judged by, and that determines your chances to become a professor and to continue to earn grant money to do some science.
If you have the option to publish in Nature or Science, you have to take it. Or you will stunt or kill your career.

But if the left mobilized their forces to shame those who publish in these journals like they shamed, oh, I don't know, Niall Ferguson for having an "all-male history conference” — oh how the arithmetic will change :-)
