They do not have the time to focus on a system that is not theirs. Why would they go back, even part time to supporting WOTC?People seem to think that Paizo must be upset about losing their number one spot, but only reason Paizo held that spot was the failure of 4e. The brand name of DnD usually dominates the market. Paizo knows this, and actually came out and said, during early years of PF, that DnD doing well helps whole industry.  5e has brought back a lot of lapsed players, and tons of casual players, but from what I have seen, Paizo has been little impacted financially. Paizo is an extremely successful company with a large, loyal fan base. Why on earth should they change course? If they are making money, why should they slow down production, which would mean less profit for them?  WOTC can have slower schedule, because they have a much smaller staff, fans who don't want to buy too much, and Magic, bringing in oodles of money off of fans who do spend money, and are thoroughly addicted.</blockquote>
