There was no implication to the contrary.  It was stated that BSD is a
*weaker* license - this is true in the sense that it has fewer requirements
(in particular, no copyleft) - and that "strong copyleft" licenses such as
the GPL should be preferred as they do more to bolster the free software
community.  You can disagree with this claim (there are arguments both ways
- delving into them is not my point here) but please try not to bring in
straw men.
