Servo? The servo was never a decent replacement for the TS1 robot. I still miss the TS1 robot.

It doesn't work like that. Design leads don't get profit sharing at the project level at EA. At most, they get to participate in the Employee Stock Purchase Program, which is sort-of like free stock options - you pay the cheaper of the price at the start or the end of the period. So if the stock goes up, you can make a good bit of money, provided you set aside some of your salary for that.
If you're going to ascribe mercenary motives, target EA management, not the development team.
Mr Humble is EA management.
Gus Smedstad:
I stand corrected. I rather assumed that the way his name is bandied about, that he was the team lead. Apparently, he's "VP in charge of the Sims division." That's something else entirely. In my experience, people that far removed from actual development don't do much. Beyond annoy the development team, of course. Touting a VP or an executive producer in connection with the title rather than the real lead designer is a typical PR department move.
I was curious who the actual team was, and that doesn't seem to be readily available information. I guess EA is more interested in The Sims 3 being an "EA Game' rather than a "Will Wright game."

Wasn't this robot called Servo? I thought it'd be called like that.
