It's extra sad because they would be more profitable if they recognized this.

Sometimes I wonder why companies are so resistant to making profits. It can be really strange. To be so profit focused yet throw away so much just because it is a bit more effort or a bit slower. But I guess most people are penny wise and pound foolish.

definitely. its just a guess but probably many businesses look at long-term as unknown risk and would rather have the short-term profits now cause who knows whats happening in 5 years... after working at a few large places thats the vibe i get anyways...
