@mgorny I disagree. Or rather I don't see an issue with it.

If I write bad code for myself and happen to it, why is it *my* problem that it doesn't work well for you?

You're free to fix it up for your use cas. That's kind of the point of permissive open source.

@bmaxv, that's one point of view.

Another point of view is that if you publish something, you need to take at least some responsibility for it.

If we were to push this to the extreme, let's say that I made a popular yet very inefficient game. A lot of people have upgraded their hardware to play it, and are wasting a lot of energy doing that. I would feel bad about that.
