It's not just NIH, after a certain size every external lib is a liability. You don't want to wait for some OSS maintainer to unblock your multi billion dollar business' issue.

If that were the case, you'd expect to see forking of 3rd party libraries rather than writing of new ones.

Most of the time you probably only use a small portion of the 3rd party library functionality so forking the whole thing and ripping out everything you don't use or maintaining it doesn't make much sense.
