Because the market is bigger than Pixels and they could license much of it (I'd like to see more of it as open source, but it's easier for a corporation to justify licensing the cutting edge stuff). I think a lot of OEMs would like access to Night Sight

Of course a lot of OEMs would like it, but google is incentivised to keep the best part of Android as pixel exclusives.
