It is, good luck hard forking such a huge codebase.
I mean what would stop a company from doing that? I get why they don't, because a lot of changes and fixes get implemented into the code from various companies/individuals, but if you had enough manpower and money, it could be done.
Exaclly money and manpower. Noone is going to do it.
