nVIDIA has a corporate attitude of combativeness, rather than cooperation. If EA / DICE asked them to provide technicsl information on their Optimus hardware and drivers to allow programmers to create a patch working around the ineptitude of nVIDIA's engineers, they almost certainly would seem to agree, and then do nothing.
