This comes up all the time, but it's a pointless discussion. What Adobe should or should not do is beyond your control, and obviously the people at Adobe don't agree with you on this. Adobe doesn't appear to be especially interested in selling to the small business market, but rather to the enterprise market. According to the little sales information I can find, this strategy appears to be working for them.
