Do they understand that skyrim only lasted so long because there were people who wanted to buy another game from them but couldnt

They don't care. If that means continually milking money without any additional effort, then that's all that matters. Only issue Todd has with Skyrim is that he had not "touch point" with all the users, as he said so himself in an interview. Translated, he sooo wishes they had a Skyrim as a service and some sort of micro-transactions built.
