Making a high fidelity simulation that will please just a fraction of the high demands and expectations of the customers is resource intensive, and that means expensive. When the sales don't add up to a profit, well, there's no business in losing money.
I would agree with you on SH3... i felt like they developed SH4 anticipating that SH3 folks would buy it just because.

but your quote about business is on the money (no pun intended)

The next big submarine Sim that will meet the demands of users wish lists... likely will be crowd funded
