No it's because they don't want to, not because they cannot. It may also be due to the billing system being unable to cope with the concept, people may want more than one STB, but why more than once SACM when the SACM can be shared, but the STB cannot.
Furthermore, the cable to your house is on the same star of cable as the cable to your neighbours house and the one next to that etc, so in reality your SACM is on the same frequency as your neighbours etc.
