Another huge factor is the econimical side. Heck, with paid employees come benefits, insurance, work compensation and so forth. Employee liability = $$$.

What? Why would they be forced to support something just because they paid for it? And why would they have to offer insurance to someone they commisioned to write some stuff? Companies hire consultants to do extra work all the time. Also, they host this site along with the official one so they're already technically paying for it.
