This is a disease. It is not open source. No one who values open source will use it. For any task, for software that would run on my system, I would rather use open source even if it's five times worse.

No one is asking you to.
Correct, but I am asking people to not use it because the whole software chain would erode and fall apart if too many people started using such non open-source licenses. Moreover, open source safeguards adoption of the software.
How does the MIT license do any of those things?
