We are talking about when they are required to release earnings not the only time they can. I’m pretty sure that lengthening the time wouldn’t really change anything as far as short term profit gain is concerned.
Like I doubt the quarterly earnings calls would go away, shareholders wouldn’t want to go a whole year without hearing from the company, they would just be a lot more lies and fluff.
I’m more of a mind of if, in the highly unlikely event that, there ever was an intelligent creator they are long since dead or have moved on to other projects.
