You're right of course. I should have said "the hassle of copyleft".

That is not what the FSF writes.

According to https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-recommendations.html :

> It is not worth the trouble to use copyleft for most small programs.

and they recommend Apache 2.0. What are you disagreeing with?

Thanks for the reference, I missed that section! 300 lines, so mostly scripts that this recommendation applies to. That's not 'small projects' if you ask me.
