It's the same thing with medicine. Pharmaceutical companies on down the line make far more money treating the patient than they do curing what ails them.

It doesn't matter if you talk about cars, building materials, medicine, ..., whenever there is a superior product, one that will last for many years, if not forever, or conservation products, companies don't make any money on them. They make the money upfront with the high cost associated with the product, but they won't make money in mass production or future repairs, treatments, replacements, and so on.
