It could be, but perhaps RunRev hasn't figured out a business model to make that viable yet. Mind you, anyone could implement another similar or better protection. What would be its purpose? Every single non-free "software protection" mechanism can be broken, given enough motivation (or boredom). Keep in mind the current protection in LiveCode is just an implementaiton of DRM, or revenue protection, under a model that is the opposite of what free open source software proposes.
