The data referenced by that buglog are 15 months old. Although I doubt they've changed enough to overtake the minimum threshold, it would be nice to re-evaluate them. For one thing, the growth rate might give insights about the future "market share" of the license. TBH, AGPL is likely to become a popular license. Having maintainers include it verbatim in packages nowadays, to factor it out a few years from now, doesn't seem like a useful exercise...
