When I compare GPL and MIT/BSD licenses, I do a simple reasoning. Suppose a doctor in a battle field meet a badly injuried enemy. Should he help the enemy?
My answer would be that he indeed should, at the condition that the patient will switch side. Oh wait, that's just what the GPL says.
This is a good requisition if he is sure that he is on the right side of the battle, which is a assumption the soldier probably does, but should the doctor do it too? Accept my truth or die.
Stefan "Analogies are broken"
Analogies doesn't have the pretension of being perfect. If they were, they wouldn't be analogies.
