Why? Patents expire. If G2 seeds did not exist then there would be a greater market for alternatives.
Monsanto wants to have its cake and eat it too. It wants to benefit from G1 seeds through GX seeds while contaminating the supply of available non-Monsanto seeds.
In cases of cross-pollination, that's Monsanto's fault. They should be required to clean up their own mess. I don't see how they'd have grounds to control seeds that were cross-pollinated through their negligence.
Monsanto is worried about more than just some outcry if they put in termination genes. They could be opening themselves up to a great deal of pain.
