With BSD, you basically have zero say in what happens to the code,

Given this, are there any compelling reasons why we shouldn't go with BSD
instead of LGPL? Anyone have any comments?

The BSD basically says, "Do what you want, we don't care. We're also not
liable. Just mention us in your derivative works."
