Hard to fault what you're saying, but what I would offer is this:

1) It never has.

2) We say this every time a new SH game comes out. However, this is supposed to be the most moddable yet. And while many of the old modders have said that the DRM has scared them off, I think that either a) Ubi will drop this scam in the not too distant future once they realize it's not working, or b) the game will turn out better than expected in terms of a modding platform and people will begrudgingly buy it to satisfy their curiosity/modding itch. Either way, I think we'll see a lot of great mods for this game.

3) I don't doubt it. But then again, that goes for most every game that Ubi is planning on releasing under this dumb idea. And that will only contribute to Ubi's decision to drop this idea. Which I guarantee WILL happen within the next 12 months.
