No. They rarely do that intentionally, pretty much only with national security-related companies because they want some influence.

They'll do it reluctantly for big bailouts when Too Big to Fail companies are about to fail. Like large banks, auto mfgs, large airlines.

They only did the smaller airlines during covid because it would have looked bad to prop up the Big Four and let the rest die.
