Do you see the absurdity? For me as manager at F, to be sure we're not breaking the contract with Frob, we would have to stipulate our contract with G not only that they themselves stick with paid-support Frob tools, but that they in turn must stipulate the same in their contracts with any H type subcontractors.And you think this will encourage people to pick commercial Qt?
Without such a clause, you could easily incorporate a wholly owned subsidiary, make it do all the development as "contractors" using Open Source Qt, get the finished product back, slap it under Commercial Qt and enjoy the benefits of the commercial terms without having paid for it during the development. That's what the clause is protecting against.
