During the Unix wars, we lost about a decade of progress on BSD because it was on proprietary forks entombed in failing companies. I think we should all be glad that did not also happen to the GNU and Linux work.
As for me, I GPL anything other than work for hire (which makes it not my decision). I don't contribute to MIT/BSD projects because that's just subsidizing a vendor who should be paying full price for the work. I haven't had to decide about AGPL so far.
