Of course you know a company doesn't have to pay a dividend at all. The board of directors declares annual dividends, well, annually.

And you know there are a substantial number of people who rely on dividends as their source of income.

Anyway I am just disappointed that WoTC intended D&D to be supportive fluff for Chainmail.

Yes, Darraketh... that's the whole point.

The people who choose whether a company is going to pay dividends (income) or raise the stock price (capital gains) stand to make a profit by choosing one over the other.
