That part I believe you are missing here is that this is a balancing act. The vendors are rightsholders too. They have knowledge we need. Unfortunately, most of them no longer want to release it -- it's not 1999. It's all well and good to say "well sod them then" but that's simply not an option on a large scale. I don't like it, you don't like it, we don't like it, ... but there it is.
$ git grep -i intel |grep -i copyright |grep -v microcode
