Yeah, it's usually based on how the cooperate structure. Some companies expect that all divisions work together to produce a uniform vision, some cooperates treat each division as an individual business.
So often times many divisions have to generate revenue in order to justify their existence and so they go out to external companies to generate sales.
And while I do agree with you, I guess I'm more surprised that a company such as HTC would build a flag ship product using a direct competitors technology and not expect Samsung to pull such a stunt.
(My feeling is they had a hunch and had some sort of backup plan with the SONY screens, which is why they where able get replacement parts so quickly)
