To clarify: GPL #4 in itself isn't a useage restriction because the

What I was attempting to verbalize (rather badly) is that software
licenses should never restrict useage.
The GPL says "if you violate this license, this license is revoked".
The proposed license says (roughly) "if you sue us, this license is
revoked". How is one a use restriction and the other not?
