Making a new proprietary closed format is not friendly to us. It's
hostile to us.

But not this new audio codec you want us to support? Why should we
help you push a new closed proprietary format? If no one is using your
format already, it's in our best interest to keep it that way, unless
you plan on publishing source or specs. Otherwise we're just
contributing to the rise of new closed codecs.
