Think about it: the decadent soy corporate scientists caused the problem and endangered everyone for money, while the rugged manly scientist who digs in the dirt and wears a cowboy hat saves the day. The book he wrote about nanomachines was pretty much the same: weak corporate scientists make the problem by being naive and soy, the manly outsider engineer who got screwed over by a manager who was selling secrets to China comes in and saves the day with a flamethrower.
It's all entirely in line with how libertarians can sometimes see that corporations are bad, but they focus on the dumbest shit like the corporation not being publicly racist enough or letting women be managers sometimes.
