I would rather see allowing creators to monetize their Java edition mods again, and to get rid of their restrictive rules on mods. The old version of the EULA actually gave people a lot of freedom, but then they changed the rules on everyone and locked it down. Obfuscation is not a true problem compared to those.
You're always welcome to just ignore the EULA and hope they don't sue you. Which they won't because the costs to them are much greater than the benefits. Even with the monetized server thing, they didn't sue them, but they did create a server address blacklist, but it only contains a minority of monetized servers.
