Some of them actually do. Others have concerns for exposing their work
in the public domain for many reasons.
- For not (re)selling what they do while they sold their works to a
specific publisher.
- Many think that the only way literary protection is to to keep
hardline (copy)right statements.
- Some think that keeping a work more restrictive in cases, makes it
more valuable ;)
- And finally, some of them did not stated anything about the public
availability of their works, and when eventually died, their heirs
made their work commercial and restrictive.
