It's BSD licensed. It's nicely integrated with altq that will also
hopefully come into the tree. That alone is worth it, let alone other
nice features. And yes, users like this features and that's something
you are going to have to live with.
Please stop this pf bashing you are fond of and stop thinking you know
what others like/want in a firewall. Choice is a great thing, respect that.
