"Because Sun wants Solaris to be a success" is the short answer to your

You can't make money on a product when you're spiting the world and fighting
losing battles. That

Not annoying current Solaris customers is one part of that strategy;
it is all too often ignored by people suggesting random changes
to the system's defaults.
You are probably assuming that your customers only use Solaris! Being
one of your customers, stupid thing's like the backspace key not
exhibiting the same results as every other device that we own is very
annoying. You might find that your customer might celebrate rather than
be annoyed if you fix something that is just stupid.
