No.

They care about maximizing shareholder value. If shipping lots of hardware with barely functional drivers integrators need to beat up into shape makes the most profit, that's what they'll do.

If you spend $20K more on making the software work, then it pays off paying $1 less for a part with a crappy driver than buying one from a vendor who also provides great software for anything you intend to sell more than 20K units.
