I think it is the large companies like those on the board that want the "full coverage." They have a different perception of what "enough" means.

So that sounds like everybody is simply moving to Type A (or least can without any disadvantage).
I am still unsure I understand what the benefit of Type B will be if Type A has „enough“ protection.

No I don't know of such a company (which doesn't mean it doesn't exist :)).
So you just answered the other thought that we discussed at the AC meeting, "it looks like no company actually needs the super-strict policies in place today". The comparison with the Apache Foundation clearly does help.
Thanks,
Martin

Such a company does not exist. I know of no companies that are serious adopters of open source who do not ship software from the Apache Software Foundation. The due diligence levels of Type A exceed those of the ASF.
Do you have an existence proof of a company that ship code from the Eclipse Foundation but refuses to ship code from Apache?
