Since when does using technology as an example mean that you condone the
way companies do business?
Ask Lennart. I only took his argument to its logical conclusion.
Maybe we should start removing other parts of
Fedora because they were inspired by, or share similar technical
features to things Microsoft or Apple did before us.
Ah, so dropping support for hw mixing is a great innovation.
I hope you see how flawed your argument is.
It was more of a ridicule than anything else.

I did that, and the reasons for it were discussed on this list. Nobody
has made any headway into explaining how to fix the problem[1] without
the hard dependency.
[1]: That'd be out-of-the-box Bluetooth headset and speakers support
While having support for stuff like that is great, I still would like
to be able to remove pulseaudio (even it it means losing support for
bluetooth headsets and speakers) without losing the rest of gnome-bluetooth.
What was the problem with that?
