To restate RMS's last sentence:
"...I'll someday have to choose between giving up on GNU, paying a fine,
going to jail, and going into exile."
I did not say it this way because this does not accurately describe
the situation I am talking about.
If some day GNU software is banned due to user interface copyright,
paying a fine would not enable me to continue distributing it. The
fine would be *in addition* to giving up on GNU--not another
alternative. (I considered the fine to be the less important of the
two problems, so I didn't mention it.)
