Just speaking as someone in the field, you would be surprised at how many IT decisions happen the way they do because nobody wants to be the one who gets called when an ornery geriatric complains that LibreOffice doesn't have the 'mail merge' button in the right place.
The old saying goes, "nobody ever got fired for buying Cisco."
I would consider it a privilege to live long enough to see the EU invest in and adopt FOSS software as a matter of national security.
Like all things FOSS & Libre, when a place as large as Europe benefits from the investment, so too do all of us benefit in kind.
It is the natural order of things; programmers love to program so much that they will do it for free, independent of any profit motive. We only see programmers charging money for their work because you basically need to sell something to survive in our Bootstrappist hellscape. Improving material conditions wouldn't just make life better for everyone, it would also result in better, newer software, delivered faster.
Doesn't matter. I was a bike messenger for 5 years. We all carried our U-Locks, some carried crowbars, batons, pistols, bear mace, stun guns... None of that matters when someone in a 2 ton death missile can basically light you out from behind faster than you can react.
The problem is and forever will be drivers.
