Why doesn't Thomson make frames?

They make incredibly durable seat posts and stems, why not make some frames? Granted, I like that they have a niche in the seat post and stem market, but they seem to know how to manipulate aluminum better than any company(correct me if I'm wrong). Also, I imagine it would be an EXTREMELY rigid ride with little give if they did make a frame, but that's where full suspension comes in! Full suspension SS/or Fixed Thomson Frame! Woot! Or even an all rigid Thomson frame and fork...maybe for a 29er or 36er? Just imagine a Black Thomson anodized frame with the logo "Thomson" etched into the side. And let's not forget the gold bars and other components. If they put the same engineering into their frames as they do their seat posts, it sounds like it would be a winning combo. What do you all think?
