What's the point then? It's not "puritan pandering".

They screwed up as a company, and other companies stopped working with them. Because they cleaned up their act doesn't mean those same companies are required to come back to the table otherwise it's puritan pandering. Because they now have "ethical standards" does not mean the context of how they ended up in this situation suddenly poofs.

on the other hand if there is no benefit to cleaning up ones act why ever do it?
