Various OEMs (cars and motorcycles) have been diddling around with this idea for decades. They found, as you are finding, that the process needs to be HIGHLY regulated within very narrow parameters to work without blowing things up. Thus they don't feel it's ready to be in the hands of the ham-handed public.
