Do you have evidence/references of this?

After all, FSF GNAT was already compatible with Ada 2012 at that time. And a company that makes large investments in software using Ada undoubtedly needs support and will not shy away from the comparatively low additional costs for licenses and maintenance contracts in its own interest. But it is important that the technology is absolutely free for small companies and people who are simply interested in the technology.

Nothing concrete I can point you to offhand. An AdaCore employee popped up in the community (freenode #ada, probably comp.lang.ada too) and started talking about it. I know several people pointed him to differences that were later addressed, or he had already tackled.
