The fact you work so hard on something as cool as this and stick to your beliefs about allowing it to be used as a CCL is commendable to say the least. Rum will dig this, wipes tear.... (insert name of your choice) is all grown up

Thanks. The main thing about the CCL is that I don't want to limit how my code is implemented in other projects, because it's just sand in the gears for wider adoption, especially on a platform that is sensitive to plagiarism.

Of course, this doesn't side-step plagiarism. That's a whole separate concern.

I have customers who don't go CCL and I'm happy to stick to their wishes on those projects. And besides, the goal isn't usually wider adoption with those. Or, if it is, they use a license like MIT, which protects their "property."

And at any point, if I want to assert my ownership, I could always revoke the license, supposedly.
