Honestly, sounds amazing.

If I have code where that isn't literally free labor for my business/project, I'll keep it closed source. If I have code where that's free labor but also competes with or commodifies my business/project, I'll keep it closed source or use GPL.

This sort of boils down to "only use MIT if you really mean it", right?
