I think it’s unfortunate if industrial usage of GHC is supported only through 
legacy code-paths.

I think non-technical arguments do matter here. It is about explanations. 
Convincing a company to use Haskell can be already quite a challenge. 
Additional legal issues don’t make that easier.

The gmp dependency is causing already enough trouble for industrial users. 
Let’s not just add another licensing issue.
