Why are so many companies and big people within the crypto community silent supporters of Bitcoin Cash?

I've been into Bitcoin Cash for a while now, and I've noticed that a lot of big people and companies that support it, but are not very public about their support for it. Some of the biggest examples being bitpay, Coinbase, Bitmain, Bitcoin.com, Gavin Andresen, and Mike Hearn. Excluding Bitcoin.com, the rest of these people and companies have given indication that they support Bitcoin Cash as a cryptocurrency, but haven't been very vocal supporters of it. There has been the occasional sign that they definitely favour and support Bitcoin Cash over Bitcoin, but they haven't bothered putting a great deal of resources towards promoting it, or being very vocal about their support.

Gavin Andresen has said some good things about Bitcoin Cash back in 2017, and to my knowledge done some work on graphene, but he does not really talk about BCH anymore, and is mostly doing work on Ethereum. It was pretty clear that he really supported the big-block ideology, but he wasn't active in promoting BCH. Bitpay and Coinbase are also pretty big supporters of Bitcoin Cash, but they're not very vocal about their support for it either. Does anyone know why these companies are silent about their support for BCH despite the fact that if they did actively put resources and time into supporting Bitcoin Cash, it could mean a big difference for the future of Bitcoin Cash?
