    I talked to a machinist I know at length about this. Beyond the NDAs that are common in the industry, even worse would be hacks of the service. If the SaaS provider were breached, then their designs that are verified to work could leak. And his competitors or even his own clients (who could take it to a competitor) with access to that information could ruin him. Worse, he could do everything right and still get screwed. Very easy to say "no" to cloud in those circumstances.
