MIT is a source code license. If you have MIT licensed source code then you already have the source code and can fix it yourself. No different than GPL.
Yes, my opinion is that a useless license is inferior to one that is useful. MIT permits taking without giving more so than the gpl. The point of my comment, you see, was to convey my strong opinion.
Many people do this, by the way: they just state something they believe without a disclaimer or preamble because in context, usually everyone in a conversation has a theory of mind sophisticated enough to discern opinion from fact, especially when someone is sharing their own private thoughts. Does this help? Good God the internet can be tedious.
