Any thoughts on why Harman does not make a larger output BTU Insert?

The Harman Accenta Insert puts out approximately 42k BTU's. They introduced a smaller one that puts out 35k BTU's a few years ago.

I'm wondering why they don't sell a 55k+ BTU insert like Enviro and Quadrafire?
 
Their larger BTU inserts and stand-alones are coal and wood, so clearly they have the expertise to handle the heat load. Maybe they figure that the larger units are more cost effective being coal and wood, which they are IMHO.
