SIMULIA Tosca Fluids and Fluent question (Sorry! The Fluent forum is unresponsive)

Why does Dassault Systemes' SIMULIA Tosca Fluids integrate with ANSYS Fluent instead of developing their own CFD package?

Why should they reinvent the wheel?

They already have their CFD package, but business is business, and there is no reason to limit that package to just a single cfd code, it is non sense.

Like developing a proprietary mesher that only exports to a proprietary solver. There is no good reason to do that.
