From a business point of view, a larger user base is a good thing; 
any level of user.  Hobbyists probably break down into two 
categories:  those who are working in industry in a different but 
vaguely related field and may someday develop commercial 
applications with the software and those, like me, who are retired 
or working in an unrelated field and will never contribute to your 
profits.

I don't see how it would make sense to provide a hobbyist license to 
those who will never develop commercial applications.  But, if you 
do, sign me up!
