I actually quite prefer the modern Apache licenses over MIT for such a ‘basic default’ license, it has the overall similar ‘abilities’ as MIT, but also a few more safety things for the authors and users without constraining use.
MIT is the most permissive. It could have problem for having derivative works to become closed source. Apache 2.0 should prevent this.
