Both side have (and will) adjust their acts based on practical
considerations, so fundamental disagreements on some details *can* be
overcome if necessary. It's just that currently they foolishly don't
realize that their intransigence works against them (IMO, obviously).
That I agree with. And it mirrors the earlier FSF/linux-kernel "labeling" friction. But I never saw that as a Torvalds vs. Stallman conflict as many presented it, the issue is fundamental.
And everyone from MSoft and IBM to AWS and Google know how to exploit it.
