Because the board is perfectly content with sucking Mozilla dry.

Mitchell Baker - Lawyer, wrote the MPL (involved since Netscape)

Laura Chambers - Stanford MBA, ex-McKinsey, ex-eBay C-suite, ex AirBnB, ex Paypal. Currently CEO of a wearable breast pump company.

Kerry Cooper - Harvard MBA, currently also in the board of PG&E, Upstart, Gradient, Fernish, Fictiv as well as an executive-in-residence at Acrew Capital.

Karim Lakhani - PhD in management at MIT, Professor of Business Administration, publishes papers on management and once a decade a paper on open source/open contribution.

Bob Lisbonne - Stanford MBA, venture capitalist, ex Netscape/Mozilla

Hugh Molotsi - Computer Engineering Masters, ex Intuit, specializes in intrapreneurial actions

Kristin Skogen Lund - INSEAD MBA, ex Coca-Cola, ex Unilever, various governmental positions in Norway

The amount of people with technical knowledge on that board is low. The amount of people that aren't MBA leeches is low. The board is perfectly happy to keep the grift going.
