Because it’s easier to fix something else, that shouldn’t have been broken anyway, and then tout it as a great advance.

The public beta is available since last November and comes with an installer that automatically installs all required elements.
has the eventual price on the plug-in gone down a bit from when it was first announced?
it sounded good (almost too good to be true), but was also a bit on the expensive side.

The official price has not been released. It still depends on if MakeMusic will take part and promote the plug-in, so that it can reach a much larger audience.
As a newsletter recipient you can currently get the limited version (max. 400 measures/35 staves) for ca. 100 Eur (80 Eur net) and the unlimited for ca. 175 Eur (150 Eur net).
And that's much, much more value than a standard Finale update.
