It really depends why a product has a hashgacha to begin with. Often it is a marketing tool and the more people the hashgacha reaches, the better it is for the company. If employing a “chumra” is cost effective a compamy will do it. If not, it won’t. Same with the kashrus agency. If word gets out that they are meikel on everything, nobody will rely on the hechsher, which will render it worthless to a large corporation looking for a hechsher. In your kitchen, you have one goal in mind. Commercialy there are a number of goals that have to be met.
