How many Elastic Searches will it take for people to realize that this is mandatory. Linux would not be where it is today were it not for some ideals wrangling.

It really depends, e.g. take a look at PostgreSQL, which is licensed under the PostgreSQL License, which is similar to MIT.

IMHO a MIT license is better than AGPL with a Contributor License Agreement (CLA) like with Elastic.

Gitea is MIT, so free and open-source, permissive.
