Legally, there are no problems for Emacs to be used as an IDE to proprietary languages.
But their decision to make and use proprietary software is a decision to stay out of our
community. Being in our community means joining in cooperation with us; we cannot “bring
them into our community” if they don't want to join.
Proprietary software does not contribute to our community, but its users and developers
often want handouts from us.
