If I was some database vendor that sometimes plays fast and loose (not saying Microsoft is, just an example) and my product is good for 99.95% of use cases and the remainder is exceedingly hard to fix, I'd probably be more likely to pay for Jepsen not to do an analysis, because hiring them would result in people being more likely to leave an otherwise sufficient product due to those faults being brought to light.
