I
could be wrong as I do not use it and only spent about 30 seconds in
researching it.

I've been using Bacula since 2007 or so and have never been asked for nor
needed a license key. We currently back up several hundred terabytes to
tape every month (which I think qualifies as "real use"), plus a bunch
more to disk, all without a licence.
Purely out of curiosity, what kind of tapes drives are you using, and what
type of interface is used to connect them?
We're using a mix of LTO-6 and LTO-7 tapes in a Quantum library with
four IBM Ultrium-TD7 drives. The drives are connected to the backup
server via an Emulex fibre channel HBA. Does that answer your
question?
