sure, but there's so much community outrage at BSL (and similar) licences, usually because they start as open source and then later rug-pull and relicense community contributions
and this results in there usually being a non-BSL fork of everything that is BSL, or at least a very good (incompatible) alternative
e.g.
but sure, I concede that a clean-room AI-implementation might be valuable depending on the existing licence
I just don't see this being especially common 🤷
