Feel free to start your “HP 12c Super-Platinum” project. Personally, I focus on the 43S, but there are many other people here. May well be you find supporters for such a financial calculator.

Well, one thing it could use is a shorter label than “12c Super-Platinum”, wouldn't you agree to that? After all, think of the WP-34s, what if it were instead labelled something like WP-32s Superior? Would it still have gotten as much support? Or do you think whatever functionality Pauli and Walter could have given the calculator would not have helped it get over having such a long label?
