Comment The Problem with Direct Revenue-Capture Licensing (Score 1) 222
I agree with RMS on this point: These add-ons aren't value adding, they're freedom subtracting.
On the complexity of using the license, this is a license for bussinessmen, not students or hobbyists. Bookwork is a natural part of running any bussiness. As for there being a new election every week, I think you're being a bit overly pessimistic about it. But as O'Reilly said - The market will determine who's right.
PS
I changed the name of the license to reduce the antagonism towards it through the use of the word "copyleft". I've also made a few other changes based on feedback here.
