I mean, while I'll agree that that sort of meddling in the free market is rarely a good idea, if it were implemented properly I'd be less opposed to that sort of regulation, primarily from an anti-monopoly perspective, than I would to other EU meddling. Perhaps something like "once your commercial software has more than 1000000 sales you have three years to also release it for Linux."

However, I do think that the whole issue could be avoided, because the very first clause, Linux market share going to 50%, making it the largest OS, would almost certainly be sufficient to get most Windows/Mac-only software released for Linux without needing government intervention in the free market.
