The cynic in me is wondering whether it's more about how revealing how the sausage is made might bring bad publicity.

It's to mitigate their competitors ability to run distillation on their models. The only advantage frontier models have is being at the frontier.

There's nothing in the reasoning tokens that'll give bad publicity that the final output already wouldn't do.

To be honest I'm not sure if many C-suite execs have a good idea of what "thinking" looks like inside in the first place, in the sense of focused mental activity aimed at solving of a hard logical or technical problem.
