      more like the Writers, Musicians, Programmers and Artists are allowed to do whatever, and if it doesn't result in a product, that's fine, they can just move on to the next thing.
      It's why they "don't make games anymore;" they do but there doesn't seem to be much pressure to actually put a product out. Add in the fact that valve never releases things unless it's "finished" (if you don't believe me consider the fact that they have a habit of throwing things out and starting over- HL, HL2, Portal 2, TF2) and you can see why they don't really release much to the public these days.

    So, Cave Jhonson actually didn't die, he was just abandoned after killing his engineers when he got mad while his mind was transported to a supercomputer, just like Caroline and GlaDOS... except, he acutally KEEP his own mind and... was left behind, abandoned, suffering alone.
    And now, according to this game events, his mind is still trapped in the supercomputer (now powered up infinetly by a probably fusion core made by a praying mantis civilization) and has connected it to the "toilet turrets" and sings with them... for eternity, in some cave in some place down underground the old Aperture facilities. (Maybe he is the reason why the turrets sing in the first place??? thought in Portal normal turrets sings and talks in feminine voices, while this old turrets sing in manly deep voices. Maybe it's just a Caroline and Jhonson thing... to sing opera songs and has transmitted to the turrets in their control... that would actually be really wholesome)

    meanwhile companies like activison release the same game year after year using recycled assets and over priced microtransaction in a game that's broken at launch and filled with hackers yet still wanna charge full price years after the games launch.
