I don't quite see how this reasoning is relevant to the proposal and
discussion about it that we've had here in this WG. There are a few
strawmen there on which you seem to base your reasoning (profiteering,
free-market philosophies, Ayn Rand, invisible hand …), but I don't
recognize them in what we've discussed.

Your blog post from 2011 therefore seems at best somewhat off the mark.

As a fairly fresh member of the list, I would therefore find it far more
useful to understand your objections if they came in context of the
discussion we've had, rather than other people's hypothetical arguments.
