Because money is the priority for those people. If they can make more money by operating in a different regime then they will, the moral or political stance of that regime isn’t really relevant

I feel like you're maybe dismissing "moral or political stance" as something almost aesthetic here, some like this, some like that.

But we're talking about what you can trust a government to do here. It matters even if you're indifferent to morality or politics. It's very much relevant to making money, too.

Sort of, I was probably a bit flippant in the comment but there’s also a short game that can be had even in a potentially hostile environment.
