Since it's polite, to point and factual.
Yes, it's so factual that he fail to mention/understand that the BSD
license *is* GPL compatible.
The reasoning pretty much goes:
* Linux rocketed to fame because of the GPL (a statement that is in
itself highly questionable)
* It's an important advantage to use GPL-compatible licences (an
opinion, not a fact)
* The BSD license has hurt the BSD projects because its not
GPL-compatible (which it IS)
Congratulations, your reasoning is self-contradicting.
