No idea why you're down voted for math :/

Check out Onlyoffice. Just the client (not the server part)

WAY better

Check out WeBoost brand repeaters. I live in what used to be a rural area and when we moved in the cell signal was trash inside the house but fine outside. Put an antenna outside on the roof, ran some coax cable to the kitchen and mounted a repeater there. No issues. Works for all major cell bands.

Reinventing the wheel is exactly why we should use open source libraries.

Expanding on other unintended outcome here: Different projects have different values. This takes no account for something like Spring vs Apache Commons IO. Or Rails vs nokogiri.

Libraries will be incentivized into breaking apart to maximize revenue.

This isn't really unlike the unintended consequences of health insurance and how it leads to overpriced services with lots of indecipherable codes for service.

It's about how the system rewards (pays) for the service. I'm all for supporting open source, but the proposals in this thread are disturbingly anti open source.

This wouldn't work for a few reasons, but the most glaring is that it would incentive re inventing the wheel.

Have you found any good private server sublemmies? Whatever we're calling them?

I think you meant YAGNI, but I dunno, YOLO might be a legit strategy for you too ;)

I mean, I don't disagree. I'd rather that too! But you're arguing if it's good policy to do this or not, that's a different argument vs. whether they legally and ethically can.
