Nice!

I'm afraid this won't take into account the indirect benefits of the
cost:
There's *spending* $10M on a software provided by a company
headquartered in a country outside the EU, and then there's *investing*
$10M into a software developed within the EU.
While it's not directly related to the difference between proprietary
and Free Software, with Free Software, you can almost always arrange for
the development to be done locally, whereas with proprietary software
it's usually out of the customer's hands.
