Whether or not you actually agree with that economic reality is irrelevant.

Of course. When I submit or commit patches, I am doing it mostly for hobby, educational, and scientific users, and maybe website makers (who make site I can visit). If commercial users piggyback on top, ok. I do not know how many developers, if any, are after such market penetration.
Shedskin compiles a slowly growing subset of Python to native code. But I do not know that it has gotten any commercial support. Maybe Mark should sell it instead of giving it away for commercial use (if he does now).
