I asked around, and I got an ACK that MPL-2.0 qualifies this criterion.
But...
just a quick question - are there code copies of simde that are being
included in the target source package? Or is it _somehow_statically linked?
Since according to policy we use Built-Using only in these situations. I'm
not fully certain about it

Could you please let me know?

Thanks and regards
