So I build a thing, and I want to give it away to hobbyists and small, risk-tolerant non-competitors, as a public service and for marketing. I hope to make money later selling it (or selling consulting), probably mostly to big companies. How is any of what you write above a problem? If the big companies are willing to pay me, then I'll sign whatever commercial license they want--and if they're not, how does it benefit me for them to use it for free? Big tech companies have done an incredible job of harvesting the value of free software developers working for free. I don't see why a license that makes that harder for them is bad, except for the big tech companies. Perhaps defining "competitive" will be too mushy to make these licenses practical for anyone, but I appreciate the attempt.
