Because further narrowing the firms that benefit would have the effect of narrowing political support for the industrial subsidy represented by the H-1B, so the longer-term interests of those who would have a short-term benefit by such a narrowing are served by sacrificing that benefit to shore up support for the benefit they derive even with the visas less concentrated in their hands.
