You are obviously free to choose to use a proprietary license, that's fine -- but the primary purpose of free licenses has very little to do with contributing code back upstream.

As a maintainer of several free software projects, there are lots of issues with how projects are structured and user expectations, but I struggle to see how proprietary licenses help with that issue (I can see -- though don't entirely buy -- the argument that they help with certain business models, but that's a completely different topic). To be honest, I have no interest in actively seeking out proprietary software, but I'm certainly in the minority on that one.
