Sure, same reason, really, that I work on GNU Octave. You wouldn't
suggest I stop working on Octave and tell everyone to just buy
expensive Matlab licenses instead?

I had written a reply to the rest of your email, but I decided that I
didn't enjoy your tone because it made me mean and unpleasant. I hope
you'll forgive me that I deleted the rest of my response and spared us
