If I may be non-ironic and un-sarcastic for a moment, that actually is a good reason when you think about it in a certain way. If you buy an official version, then you could expect a certain amount of help if something doesn't work, i.e. you have a legitimate complaint. With a community port, Jolla and the hardware maker can both (rightly) say: "Well, you get what you pay for. We're not responsible. Maybe ask the community for help . . ." It would sure have broader appeal. Plenty of customers just need to get a device to work, and call someone or walk into a store if it doesn't. That's why my wife has an iPhone and a Mac. Like most normals, she's got no need to haunt forums like me and tinker with her tech all the time. Not her concept of fun.
