The classic developer hypocrisy in its natural habitat! We're all for permissive licensing until someone actually exercises those permissions. "Sure, use my MIT-licensed code for anything... wait, you're SELLING it? With a different NAME?! How DARE you do exactly what I explicitly allowed!" The cognitive dissonance hits harder than a production bug on Friday afternoon. The MIT license is basically saying "do whatever you want" but our egos still can't handle seeing our precious code in someone else's commercial product. We want the street cred without the consequences of our licensing choices.
