Has Weber aggressively protected the design of the grates? Kind of surprised there hasn't been alternatives come out under the same format. I have GBS grate for the occasional cook but dislike that it isnt SS and the middle grate isn't secured during regular grilling.

IDK. I never use mine...the plating burned off mine using nothing but charcoal baskets and now it rusts all the time.
I use a KG grate on the 22 and move/use accessories on top of the grate. Same for 26er which comes with Weber ss grate. Never use my char baskets either as I have sns+ and snsxl in the two kettles. Not ideal for the accessories, but they work.
If the gbs grate were stainless it would be fantastic to use with the baskets. But, i won't buy another plated grate ever, even if they put out gbs for 26er. Tired of fighting rust. My guess is they have patent on design which prevents others from making a better one.
