I can imagine some reasons why one would not want to explicitly offer
data under an open license:
- Fear that access to the data will become a financial burden
(hosting/data limits).
- Unwillingness to develop a method of access to the data.
- Unwillingness to make a commitment to maintaining the data and/or
API in the future.
- Desire to reserve the right to monetize access to the data in the future.
Some of those concerns can be mitigated by cooperation.
