It's possible that Digitalk doesn't want a decompiler floating around
there to protect customers who write applications under Smalltalk;
perhaps *they* don't want their code decompiled.....

It's hard enough to get smalltalk accepted as an applications language...
Runtime versions are becoming more popular.

Of course, I'll stick to "my" old adage:

"If source is outlawed, only outlaws will have source."
