I think it would help if you actually use that test and argue about that
case. I.e. what effect does some requirement have for someone in this
case and why those are a problem or not a problem.  Just arguing that
this is only a corrolary of DFSG and not a part of it, you do not
argue about the merrits of the license and increase the danger the
discussion ends in some meaningless sophistry like the one you fear
this test can be used for.
