And if any developer who disagreed to relicense their code wants to sue - they have a high chance of succeeding.

It's not enough just to rewrite their code - it must be done using a 'clean room' approach. I.e. one team reads the code and produces a detailed specification and another team writes code to this spec, without communicating with the first team.
