Is it because companies tend to strip denuvo from the games after some months?

I think it is mostly due to it being difficult to hack and those with the skill are well employed and don't want to risk legal action or spend the time to crack games.

Yeah, didn't Denuvo themselves hire a few of the former crackers?
