I think the reason is two-fold. Firstly, Librie could not read anything except LRF, so the incentive to make custom viewers was much higher. Secondly, there is currently no easy way to run those custom applications, and with the signed firmware updates it's become even harder. However, I'm currently investigating some options and hopefully the second reason will become less of an issue.
