Since they already make money by selling the GPUs, I don't see any reason whey they are so assholes about the software support.
They are using software to offer or limit features in their product lines, and have done so for decades (i.e. floating point performance is very hobbled in the gaming cards, but the hardware isn't substantially different to justify this change, their special passthrough and other businness functionality works only on Quadro cards but it has been spoofed in the past by BIOS modding gaming cards to change an ID number or doing other hacks to make them recognized as Quadro).
Sos it's plain obvious why they aren't going to release shit for recklocking. If they do so, the Noveau driver will enable all sorts of crazy businness features for all their card lineup and it would be a disaster for their businness sales.
