I am glad that Fedor now agrees that FDL would not be a free software licence according to FSD. Note that freedom for certain modified versions (for example, even a work containing only the GNU Manifesto invariant section) are effectively blocked, which triggers this section of reasoning. I am not sure why this wasn't clearly stated in the previous message.
