We do live in a capitalist system and people who own rights to a book are certainly entitled to make decisions concerning that book which benefit them.

The other side of the argument is that "To Kill a Mockingbird" has become a cultural icon and that might also be considered. If you own a building that has been deemed to have historical significance you're not allowed to deface it or destroy it. The same logic might apply here.

God should have made a simpler world for us to live in. We don't handle the complexities of this one very well.
