Because cloud providers have started to build their own hardware to eke out performance advantages versus other cloud providers. It's not a far stretch to conclude that Google will prioritize its kernel's development for its proprietary hardware and not have to release any of the secret sauce to the public.

If you aren't distributing the binaries, you don't have to release your changes to GPL software. That's what the AGPL tried to fix.
