Sure, but things work differently under the hood on Linux vs Windows, so they still need to validate every build. That means QA resources every release (and they release often), as well as development efforts to patch any Linux-specific exploits.

If supporting Linux doesn't bring in more money than other dev efforts, it's not worth it.
