And that would either be trivial functionality, which should be easy for the free software world to replicate, or difficult functionality, which probably does deserve to be paid. Or something in between.
I fail to see a major problem here.

I never said it is a problem but often it can be. For instance, some functionality is not difficult and is fairly easy but prohibited by local laws. However, fact of the matter is, the license change does allow the possibility and I was answering the OP on how one can be paid for this.
