Mavis Beacon C64 never cracked?

Hi guys,
I just noticed Mavis Beacon 64 (disk version) on ebay. For those who don't know, the Mavis Beacon program teaches you touch typing - pretty useful for coders and, well, anybody. I checked on CSDb to find a crack of it, and there was nothing! :O Could it really be that no one has cracked/imported/released this one (yet)?

A crack of protected software makes sense, because it makes it easier for people to copy it without hardware hacks or stuff like that.

Hm... Is the "scene" even interested in unreleased educational software?

I bet some of the active good crackers would walk on their hands to get something that needs to be actually cracked, which is hard to find these days.
