"You just don't *want* to solve that problem!"
The whole reiteration of "it's just not possible because you guys haven't invented it yet" reminds me of that Big Bang Theory episode, where Penny's idiot (ex-?)boyfriend proudly tells about the invention he just made – goggles that convert any movie into a 3D movie. How does it work? "I don't know, I'll let you figure that out."
Now there are two possibilities: Either all of those "the laws of Australia trump the laws of mathematics" statements are made honestly and those making them are really ignorant enough to believe in that; or that this is just a clever ploy to get Joe Public to sooner or later think "The tech companies just don't *want* to do it because they are evil."
Honestly, I don't know which one to believe. They both sound awfully plausible.
