I'm sure government officials would like to keep the doors open under their table! In commercial software they have two revenue streams, one is a "commission" on the total volume of purchase of the software, and the other is "commission" on (any) services opted for. In the case of open source, they would miss out on the first (and the most lucrative) revenue stream. How could they go to the U.S., or Switzerland with their family for holidays? :P
Anyway, I just hope this isn't the real reason for "non-alignment".
