Because that only works if none of your customers want to access their home
boxes from outside in any way, and if none of their applications require a =
return
channel.
Telling your customers they can't telnet, ssh, or VNC into their home boxes

you all your Windows users.
The few Mac users you have left don't keep you profitable. :-)
