Open source programs can just distribute, well, the source, and make users responsible for compiling it for themselves. But that's not an option for ADE (since the DRM relies on security by obscurity). So Adobe would need to offer dozens if not hundreds of versions of the software if they wanted users to be able to use it.
That's why they can't manage it. There's no one simple target like Windows or Mac OS X.
