Because the idea of working hard to produce something people want
Fine.
spending a considerable amount of money to make it available to people
Irrelevant. You chose to make that economic risk.
and then expecting recompense is immoral.
Even if the market doesn't want your final product?
He'd farm his own eggs, but then he'd have to distribute the chicken, and the egg, and the chicken...
All modifications to distributed eggs must include the modified chicken as well.
