Apparently they have, though.
Quoting from:
http://www.abc.net.au/catalyst/stories/s1486827.htm
"Prof. Mike Archer: What we know for example is that it doesn't require as
he claims 40 unique proteins to make this whole thing work there are many
other kinds of bacteria out there that have flagella and they have far
fewer than that. So it's already reducible."
Catalyst is a weekly science TV program on Australian ABC, and they had an
episode about ID, recently. (The ID guys are pushing the same sorts of
arguments, and distributing the same DVDs to schools, and getting the same
sorts of politicians on-side here, too.)
