This comment expresses a misunderstanding. Merely not believing hard enough is not why threat modelling has failed. There is an incentive mechanism and this description of it can help them re-orient their strategy.

The counterfactual premise of threat modelling is that a business wants responsibility for mitigating or remediating risk without direct compensation, instead of a method to manage and transfer it. A technologist is just happy to solve problems, so they don't see this open loop as a source of value.
