I am not a lawyer etc. but I think you should be very careful about trying
to circumvent the GPLv3 in this way; its wording is broad.

You have several options without attempting this, they include: finding a
revenue model that's compatible with open sourcing your application,
consulting a lawyer first, contacting the author of the library and
explaining the situation.
