Obviously, most people on this site want to see Final Mixes make their way overseas. But even if that does happen, it will only happen once, here's why:
Square Enix doesn't announce their games will have Final Mixes, or Compilations, or what have you. As such, nobody would know if and English Final Mix were to appear, until it became available, about a year after the game was originally released. Because of this, people will do what they always do when a KH game is relased; get their fill. They'll probably buy the game, if not, probably watch it online, or at least get a synopsis. Odds are they'd spoil Final Mix as well.
Basically what I'm saying is that, because we won't be warned in advance, the Final Mix won't sell well.
Square Enix will see that, assume we don't want it, and never do it again.
It's a very common problem with new ideas, people assume that people should adapt to a new situation immediately, but that's not the case. I'm willing to bet that the second Final Mix released, it would sell a lot better, because people would expect it.
Of course, Square could just wait until they can give everybody ALL of the content, but...
