> I think it's both a completely unrealistic end goal

I know :( I just meant it's the ideal we should strive towards, even if we never fully reach it.




If this incremental step led to a better world already, I would maybe agree... but I think it makes the whole ecosystem worse and worse, until some far-away tipping point is reached where almost everything is AGPL and can reuse each other again. And even then I'm not sure I'd be happy with the *GPL, as now you can't back out of it again in case you later discovered that it was the wrong decision, without getting the permission by all copyright holders.
