Are they camping on this data because, like the Viking data, they cannot recreate a plausible physical scenario?

They are "camping" on the data becase it's
their data. Those who conceived, designed, built and paid for the mission expect to get first shot at the data! NASA's policy is that
all data is propietary for one year. After that, even if the data is released, there is no requirement that NASA put it on the public pages.
