The reality -- the project became a way for new Rust devs to get their first Github commit. It became popular. MIT/Apache 2 is the default for new Rust projects. But I think you need to also consider the downside risk. Because I don't see one. uutils are valuable only because they exactly replicate the GNU version. You'll always have GNU!
