Well, no wonder the Linux people make fun of us.  ;-)

Your commentary has been clear; I'm just not sure I buy into the reasoning
offered for it.

I'd rather give a bit of money to FreeBSD, and have them give me a lot of
money, than not have the exchange.  As long as they have "plenty" of money,
and "plenty" of users, partnership is a big win for us.
