So far the opposition to it is more due to confusion and corner cases rather than logic. In the case of Linus he does not want to be poltical and resents the kernel development being made a political battle ground (IMO primarily because companies likely to be affected are substantial resource contributors)
There is also the very genuine fear of the V2 crowd being left behind. I would put the traction behind v3 at 70% and climbing. If Linus digs his heels in HIS kernel development will suffer. And Imo he will have to switch.
