As others got at least more ashamed in cutting, while of course see no more benefit to give when no direct gain can be expected, the Deva family increased the business in wood.
So making the joice easier, and since again people up the mountain, Atma told Upasika Grandmother of the house today, that Atma will need to go on if not stopping cutting forest, since it's improper to go along with thieves. It's because monks usually gather together with thieves, work for the "poor" that only decay in all regads increases.
It's so all up to choices and possible to expensive, virtue, and easier to go on with those open to brides and a blessing "we all do so" and usually gets legaliced because other depend on us...
