The original request was to 'please provide more details on

"infringing
intellectual property", and where "unprofitable technology is
putting
national economies at risk".
I agree.

To some extent you do, quoting the entirety of 22.12 Making
Decisions:
It is expected from all contributors, and even more so from
committers, to help build consensus and make decisions based on
consensus. By using consensus, we are committed to finding
solutions
that everyone can live with. It implies that no decision is
made
against significant concerns and these concerns are actively
resolved
with proposals that work for everyone.
A contributor (who may or may not have commit access) wishing
to block
a proposal bears a special responsibility for finding
alternatives,
proposing ideas/code or explain the rationale for the status
quo to
resolve the deadlock.
There are specific places and manners which concensus is
developed,
such as GCDs and pull requests. A random user’s guix-help thread
is
not the place for any of this.
I would encourage you to engage in the guix-devel thread for this
topic[1], if you haven’t already.
