> it’s not anything that couldn’t be rewritten in-house without too much difficulty

This is my experience, at every group I’ve been in. Extending the date a bit is much easier than involving legal for approving a new library.

The group I’m in now sunk a substantial amount of money into a lawsuit for a library that accidentally made its way in, so are now “No LGPL.” with some crazy loops and approvals required if there’s really no alternative (very rare). From their perspective, it’s cheaper and safer to rewrite than not be in compliance, unintentionally or not.
