It makes 0 sense for anyone to lend such a license
Exactly, lending a license is illegal if I recall because that means that you're trying to impersonate another business in favor of your business so it can operate normally. Any form of evasion to register a license is illegal right?
I agree lending a gambling license is illegal because it can be used for bad purposes all kinds of casinos are open if you have a gambling license. It will be to your own detriment and it will work in complete conflict of law.
