Poetry is notoriously hard to make money on - Bombadil was exceptional iirc. There may be a reluctance on the part of his Literary Executors to publish work that is unfinished if it doesn't shed light on the wider creation. I doubt copyright would be insurmountable since poetry is usually collectedcand anthologised. However its cost might make the project unviable.

I would love more letters and I think that would be justifiable since the publication of HOME may make more of them relevant.
