There is indeed already (and long-standing) a Mac-specific Emacs port: https://bitbucket.org/mituharu/emacs-mac and I have no doubt that it would add `ns-do-applescript` right back if it were removed from the upstream. I am also very curious about the breakdown of Emacs Mac users: how many are using the Mac port and how many the GNU upstream?
I use Emacs on Mac OS and I can certainly say that I use it for the features -- it is the editor that best suits me -- not because of the license or anything like that. If it were to become insufficiently featureful, I would pick a different editor, not change my entire OS.
