Potential Painful Blow to FDM Printing in the US

Prusa has wipe towers (at least PrusaSlicer and Slic3r). Snapmaker’s Cura-based slicer “Luban” has them for sure for use with the dual extruder print module. Why don’t they involve Prusa with their multi-nozzle Prusa XL? Or Snapmaker with their dual extruder system? They probably only see BBL as a direct competitor in the industrial segment of the market. That’s fair, but it shows that they do not really care about the patent, only about undermining the success of their competitor.
