For the short term foreseeable future, there's a continuing larger number of people coming in to the field who've not yet been burned, and will continue to choose Google libs/projects without that experience. Google doesn't seem to need to worry about burning a few bridges here and there, yet. Maybe they'll need to adapt in the next 10 years?

Google probably doesn't care whether developers use their open source projects -- they hardly make any money from it and they make 95% of their money from advertising.
