I'm not claiming that this is your argument. I'm claiming that this is the structure of the GPL. I think your "entirely lose my respect" quip means that you think that license isn't needed for some cases because license has already been granted for other cases. Or maybe not. I certainly can't claim that I understand your arguments -- I have to guess to figure out what it is you think you're saying. -- Raul
