On second thought, it's not the enterprise, or enterprise users, who want restrictive licenses. It's vendors/developers seeking enterprise customers who want to continue calling their software open source, but be able to use non open source restrictions because their business plan doesn't work.

Well, obviously, it's /restrictive /licenses they want from us now. And they can have them from Polyform and co., we don't and can't restrict anyone from using the license of their choice on their own work. Just please don't call them Open Source.
