They appear to be fine with redistribution, just not with wide
distribution by a popular Linux distribution, which has a stable
release that is guaranteed to get out of date with documentation.

Possibly they could be convinced by having the package only available
in Debian unstable or experimental and guaranteeing to keep it up to
date with the latest available upstream version.

On the other hand they probably also don't want to deal with bug
reports about a build that they did not produce.

Perhaps the right way is for Debian to distribute ExplosionAI software
under different names with all documentation pointing at Debian to
avoid upstream having to deal with bug reports from Debian users.
