Without such a clause, you could easily incorporate a wholly owned
subsidiary, make it do all the development as "contractors" using Open
Source Qt, get the finished product back, slap it under Commercial Qt
and enjoy the benefits of the commercial terms without having paid for
it during the development. That's what the clause is protecting against.
