Yep. This sort of thing happens in the cell phone industry all the time 
too. Carriers in one country don't want to pay for that patents on 
technology owned by other countries, so they "corrupt" the standards 
(making them work more poorly *and* more expensively) to avoid the 
patent problems. No different, really.

I suspect if you were in any other industry, you'd see the same sort of 
things happening.
