Valuable feedback and code changeshave come from this process that will also find their way into otherrelated projects in the near future.
Let's hope that this is not a new 'Pfsense case' and that the free version of Opnsense will be maintained under the current conditions.
Let me illustrate what you misunderstood:

There are more fixes relevant for non-OPNsense code.
To reiterate: this is a good thing. :)
Cheers,
