Can we stop with these drive-by comments on every project that uses a permissive open source license? You are certainly welcome to create your own UI framework under the GPL if you want. The contributors have chosen MIT and that is a perfectly valid decision.

Why should the choice of licence not be a fair concern to express in the comments? I'm not questioning the validity of the authors' decision per se, but the considerations and priorities behind it, and whether they ought to be different for a project of this type. I don't see how this side is less important or interesting to consider than the technical one (on which comments seem quite commonplace, and rightly so, in my view).

If my actual opinion interests you, I might lean towards the LGPL, rather than the GPL. I find both of them more beneficial than any of the MIT licences for a UI framework, but strong copyleft might do more to hamper widespread adoption and interest in the project, which seem an important factor as well.

It's a valid concern, but consider that some persons put a lot of effort into making open source software and then share it to be nice, or for the public good.

So to people chime in and complain that it's not good enough can seem obnoxious and/or ungrateful.
