That's only if they are planning addons. If, as some people think, they have mostly abandoned the game and do not expect to profit more from it, they wouldn't lose money. However, making extra tools available means someone will have to spend time on that, for no expected gain for the company, so that's unlikely too, although it has happened with some other games such as MiG Alley, EECH and (questionable circumstances) Falcon 4.

Agreed, but it's not unreasonable to ask SCS if SCS prohibits new platform modding.
