Yes.

The cost to do the work and the cost to ensure compliance with the law would both be real dollar amounts for most small companies. Enough that if you wanted to try out an experimental new service you'd have to take into account that cost in your budgeting.

Telling a company (or individual) that they need to sit down and pay to kill their products means they will think harder before they launch them. That's a barrier, and it will slow down innovation and make sure that only the companies with the resources to support compliance and open sourcing will be the ones to launch new services.
