It may be true that GoDaddy still has loads of domains but I can bet ya that a lot of it are shady websites. If GoDaddy is seen to support something that may lead to their websites shutting down, you can be sure they (and future customers) are looking elsewhere.
In other words, GoDaddy does give a shit. Is not about what they have now, is about whether they can get anymore future sales.
Not to mention renewals. I hear of a few people with hundreds of domains that don't want to renew all at once. So they are going to let them near expiration and just transfer them away as they get closer to expiry, so as to spread the cost out.

you forget to factor in future sales.
