I&#x27;m deliberately entangling them, because outside of an abstract conversation, the behaviour of humans and the resulting economics of the marketplace are entangled, as I&#x27;m sure you agree. Freedom for humans creates incentives for manufacturers to exploit that freedom.<p>If you give humans the right to buy anything they want, sooner or later someone will make a health drink containing Radium.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Radithor" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Radithor</a><p>At that point, you either go full Libtard and say, &quot;we&#x27;re all adults here, caveat emptor&quot; or you regulate the marketplace and make it illegal for people to do business in Radium drinks.<p>I&#x27;m not saying anyone should be prohibited from buying&#x2F;leasing&#x2F;licensing proprietary, opaque software. But I do think there are reasonable arguments for such.<p>So what I would say back to you is &quot;Do not conflate saying there are reasonable arguments for X with saying X should be the case.&quot;
