Well, I like to look at it a different way. The best way for me to comply with the wishes of AGPL licensors is to avoid their code. I am never going to break their terms if I never use their software. I do not intend this in a points-scoring way. I mean it: I am trying to respect their wishes.
Now, if I was the end consumer for graphql-engine, and if it gave me a strong commercial advantage to do so, I think it's fine for Hasura to ask me to choose between the AGPL or a private license. I would probably consider the commercial license because I expect it would come with add-ons, support, influence over the roadmap and so on.
But my use case is to bundle it as a dependency, meaning it would affect people downstream of me. That I can't do.
