Convenience to people who want to use code has no bearing on what is
proper.  Removing all the GPL licenses from Linux would make it easier
for people to create proprietary derived works, and surely you would not
suggest that to be a reasonable course of action.

The question remains what's legally appropriate, in terms of respecting
the license of the code from Zebra, and the social norms within and open
source project.
