Valid points. To apply for a commercial license one of the criteria is that you have to represent a major brand. Not sure why but if you don't say yes to that, you end up with a non-commercial license. Using the Flickr API to "recreate" the experience is a bit vague. Probably intentionally. But it's unclear if it means to build a Flickr-like interface on top of their API or exporting your photos and then re-uploading them somewhere else. Additionally, we're helping users move their photos into their own storage accounts. Which is a bit different than moving them onto ours. We do offer a layer of functionality on top of their storage account so I can see how there might be some concern. Nonetheless, we're respecting their rate limits and even have libraries on Github[1] if you wanted to do it yourself.
