They are relying on ignorance, IMO.

Transferring a domain is very easy ... as long as you are registered with a
reputable registrar (NSI and GoDaddy both fall into that category), it's
quite easy to do.  It just takes a few days.

Personally, I switched to GoDaddy many years ago and haven't looked back.
