I guess they really had to consider the effect it would have on future tech camera sales (WRS). If you are just starting out, with out lenses, this is a perfect solution.
You get movements, shift and swing/tilt. You can still mount the Schneider and Rodenstock lenses, but in a much less expensive mount, i.e Copol 0. No more need to spend the extra dollars for the Cambo T/S mount.
Your lenses actually hold more value, since you can sell them to anyone (all they need to do is add the mount for their camera, and not remove a Cambo mount)
Digital issues such as crosstalk will be the same dependent on the back/tech lens selected. But the cost of entry is I am assuming much less.
Plus you can mount Canon or Nikon TS_E/PC-E lenses, which should push back further and help cancel out crosstalk and still allow shift (from the lens). Edit, I just remembered the Canon has no manual aperture ring, so I guess it won't work, but the Nikon PC-E does.
Smart move.
