Ehh, but there's no direct monetary loss. Not many games stay relevant for a decade, so it's likely the commercial competitors will drop support after X years while you can backport their blackbox improvements. That said, I wonder if components of games are really that able to be copy pasted. My initial impression is NO, unless that was the intent when the component was first written.
