Note that pools != miners. A pool might set the policy for their blocks, but miners can swap pools whenever they feel like it. Large pools have had individual miners abandon them in masses before.

True. Actually I was referring to the manufacturers of ASICs who are running huge mining operations. I'm not sure if they operate in their own pools or if they distribute their efforts across multiple pools. But they do have a critical mass of hash power.
