No, I'm saying that what you're preoccupied with is not ultimately the biggest problem. And I don't think they are as deeply linked as you do.
That's fine though; ultimately, you will be able to blame RethinkDB's death on this non-problem and you'll have a clean conscience. It's easier to point to this as the cause of death than the much harder problem of getting people interested in the product in the state it's currently in. I think this is like blaming a cancer death on a lack of handwashing. Sure, washing your hands is important. But it won't cure cancer.

Stating a specific reason to doubt the dismissal of it as a serious and potentially fatal concern is neither preoocupation nor stating a belief that it is "the biggest" problem. > Sure, washing your hands is important. But it won't cure cancer Which is not to say failing that kind for basic hygiene doesn't make you more likely to die sooner with a cancer that has already left you immunocompromised -- more dangerous in that condition than for the average healthy person. Which is pretty much a perfect analogy for where I think the licensing issue fits into the space of problems facing RethinkDB.
