Because anything against capitalist thought gets mulched up, repackaged, and spat out. If you can commodify being a maker, you take away from the people who are actually subverting basic consumer thinking.

I think we're seeing the same problem in the modern form of the "gig economy" versus what people initially idealised for a freer, less contractual workforce.
