Why the fuck would they create a new license? That's concerning.

They want to prevent coders from dictating terms. It's about perceived control/power over coders and ensuring whatever power coders wield is dispelled thru legalese spells.

Have written lots of open source as well as packages which are not published. The amount of contributions measured in issues/PRs/funding has been the same. Absolutely none.

Lost any incentive to care about debating licenses' purity.
