Not /Controlled/ Here Syndrome.

MS were quite happy to support Java as long as they could make their own
incompatible version.  When the courts said they were not allowed to do
that (and still call it "Java"), they went off in a huff and made C# as
their own alternative to Java which /they/ controlled.

(I don't think MS are as bad at this as they used to be, and I am not
implying that other companies are necessarily better.)
