loosely speaking:

you said "avoid gpl". reason? "unenforceable". eliminating gpl from consideration, thus you advocate non-copyleft licenses instead.

with me so far?

but gpl's "unenforceability" could only mean it turns into a non-copyleft license, one which you say one should not use, so if one shouldn't use gpl because in reality it is a non-copyleft license, then you must be against non-copyleft licenses.

just to state it again for clarity: "don't use gpl because copyleft is unenforceable so gpl is just MIT underneath, and I repeat, don't use it" is a recommendation not to use MIT license.

Please link to where I said not to use copyleft licenses. Check the usernames carefully.

Note that I don't agree that GPL and MIT are equivalent, or that GPL becomes a non-copyleft open source license if not enforceable. IANAL but it might revert to the regular copyright law for wherever you publish software, not an open source license.

just be honest, you don't like GPL. The reason you don't like GPL is not because it's not enforceable, but because you don't want to enforce it, or be subject to its strictures. Your argument that you use MIT because GPL is unenforceable makes no sense, as I pointed out.

(also, it is enforceable and has been enforced, but that's a separate topic.)
