Situation 1: impossible to merge. They can make a proprietary version of
the forked project. Forking does not allow the community to escape from
the bad-faith ID.

Situation 2: no contributions. The ID would have nothing to freeload off
of. But that was my point, that it *requires* the project to die
completely for the ID to not be be able to freeload off of a codebase
that is otherwise under a reciprocal license.
