They COULD choose to offer more Tiki product, but hey do not, because it is too un-P.C., and of questionable taste.

So this why we see places like Las Vegas Trader Vic's then? I'm sure they had top designers.
How many of them would think the the Aku Aku or Mai Kai as being of questionable taste. But by the time those designers grow up they have seen 5% good Tiki and 95% bad tiki. The squeekie wheel gets the grease and the garish tiki clouds the water.
