I don't believe that has stopped 3rd party manufacturers before. Maybe they just haven't figured out the reverse engineering yet. Tamron making lenses for there Sony E Mount is a definite plus as Sony lenses are pretty pricy.
That's my understanding as well, that Canon and Nikon mounts are reverse engineered. I wouldn't have that RF and Z mount protocols would be all that different, but maybe they are?
I believe Sony actually provides 3rd party manufacturers with protocol information for E-mount.
