Agree, it’s been always surprising to me that companies don’t just release sources after say 10 years.
I wish for Fallout 1 and 2 sources. I think there would be strong community interest in hacking it.

I think that many companies would agree to release sources of abandonware games upon appropriate request from a fan base community, with the goal of preserving, maintaining and advancing the original title. In fact this is strategically beneficial action for the company, not from a financial perspective, but you can imagine some extra attention and buzz being created if the game was to be revived.
It’s possible that many companies are not even aware of devoted communities around their older titles.
