i would say not bad but the fact you are asking me to pay to use it when i can have something like d3 is a bit of a joke

As someone who has used D3, I think you are vastly underestimating the audience of D3 users who would happily pay for a far easier solution ;)

(do agree with other comments that per-dev pricing is a bad model, though)

D3 takes ages to build graphs with. That's why NVD3 made such big news.

What you get when you buy a license is support. Which I remember was the main reason we had for not choosing NVD3 last time, and went with a library with much better documentation.

why is everyone these days so afraid of investing time? d3 is well worth the time invested learning!
It's not about being afraid of investing time, but rather assigning more value to time than the licensing fees.
