bob, that misses an entirely different issue of competition. Swiftech is materially hurt by giving competitors the result of their hard labor. Bill works darn hard getting that test data, and there's no reason to give the competing companies that do NOT invest in R&D any assistance.
Businesses help their partner not their competitors.
edit: Bill could actually be criminally charged if he publishes that data! It would be a crime against the Swiftech investors if he devalues the company by helping the competition. Economic sabotage/theft is a crime.
