And I am puzzled how you don't accept that open source *allows* forking and all that stuff, but that doesn't mean that competition is necessarily good, or just felt as good. In particular not in a case, when the code base is most likely 90% or more identical and there's a lot of common history. And, likewise, not in a case like this where competition primarily means that a lot of effort (building, mirroring, ...) will be spent for simply duplicating things that don't add any value to either project.
