Apache is great if your goal is to take and use the IP or embed the product in

It sucks if you're a developer and want to extend an existing app with some

It seems clear that you don't like the Apache License. That's fine;

In your case, perhaps it would be wise to avoid using/developing
software licensed under the ASL.
