On: McDonald's just dropped a brand new Game Boy game

I personally think your particular scenario is the easier one: such "client" will ignore any license requirement or "moral pressure" anyway, as soon as they can acquire the software in some way. There shouldn't be moral burden on the devs. You do more good (way more) than harm. Otherwise I doubt Linus can sleep at night. I'd say this is no difference from, say, a knife manufacturer when it comes to the harm the knives do.

Commercial use is something devs are more torn because they feel they're being exploited while the client is not doing anything wrong inherently (doing business).

And in that case, you have to adjust your expectation to be exactly the same as the license you put in to resolve such cognitive dissonance.

"the harm the knives do"

Ah yes, those famous knives that jump up and attack people, when they're not too tired from autonomously cutting steaks and chopping vegetables.

You got what I meant. Sorry, not a native speaker.

No need to apologise, your post made sense.
