You are not considering the power dynamics in B2B. The customers get SLAs in their maintenance and support contracts, including monetary penalties. It is also a repetitive business. Bad experiences actually count.

In my experience, if anything development support/maintenance is delivering too much in many cases, i. e. not limiting themselves to fixing bugs, but enhancing functions on customer request.
