Well, they can be "needlessly scared" on behalf of their telecoms partners, who tend to be needlessly scared about a bunch of stuff, albeit stuff which is often of their own making.
Google's "LGPL violation fly-by" involving ffmpeg and the redistribution of works under exclusive patent agreements might sit well within Google (and show that their lawyers think they know where the loopholes might be, albeit ones that have been closed in later versions of the licences concerned), but their partners might back off at the prospect of doing similar things with products that have their name on it.
