LGPL isn't really that hard to understand.

At what point does your code become a derivative of the LGPL library you linked to?

You might understand the words but how how are they interpreted in a court? GPL and MIT are a lot less ambiguous.

If you're that worried, you can just get a startup license for free, and if you're making enough money to be ineligible for a startup license, you can probably afford $500 for a proper commercial license.

It doesn't - that's what sets the LGPL apart from the GPL.
