It's not, but it's by far its biggest cash cow (probably with Wes Anderson and Bergman trailing somewhere in the distance). Who else would they make a near-all encompassing filmography box set for? I understand what you're saying and believe me, there are hundreds of other films I wish Criterion would release (and dozens I am happy they have released and will be releasing), but it just seems that given their past treatment of Kurosawa's catalog, they'd be a little more inclined to push out the hi def versions.
