Emacs is product, and can be well sold, it is power text editor, with
too many features and extensibility. Perfect software product. Manage
anything, compan, clinic, hospital, memberships, calculations,
spreadsheets, plethora of features.

It is sellable. License allows it.

Just sell.

I could not purchase GNU CD-ROMs back in time, it was too much money
in the Wittwer library in Stuttgart, but later I purchased GNU/Linux
where Emacs was marketed and sold. So I did buy it.

Nobody forbid selling Emacs.

I can do supermarket point of sales on Emacs. Or clinic
management. Anything.
