I get what you're saying, but ultimately it is an issue of priority. Google has the money, they just don't choose to spend it on supporting Google Drive on Linux, even after saying they would. So, supporting Linux is by definition a lower priority than anything that did pass the bar for resource allocation in the last ten years. You're right about the motivations: they must not view it as creating real business value, since that's how these decisions get made. My only point here is that it IS a choice someone in an office is making: it's not worth it to support Drive on Linux. They do know about it, because it was on their radar 10 years ago. Somebody took it off their radar.
