Ah, that's part of the root of this issue - we don't know based on the facts in evidence if this is a widespread concern or not. We only know that it's a concern to those three people.

As you can see, there are more than three people in this thread alone who feel strongly in the opposite.

It seems to me the right things to do would be for the ASF to reach out to some Apache organizations to ask their thoughts, and for the article authors to approach (or create, if necessary) similar representative groups to make a formal statement of position.
