Why use `node-pre-gyp` instead of `node-gyp`?

Summary

Why use node-pre-gyp instead of node-gyp? The node-pre-gyp uses the BSD license.

Proposed implementation

We need to carefully consider products under the BSD license.

What's wrong with the BSD license? This repository uses the BSD license as well.

The problem shouldn't be the license, but that node-pre-gyp has no maintainer [1] and it is causing install problems to electron users that want to install this library [2]
