Aye, that's *exactly* the question.
Perhaps if a new sacred terminology hadn't been invented for the FSF
religion, but ordinary words had ordinary meanings, fewer people would
misunderstand or feel that they didn't understand. Company lawyers
don't freak out when they see a Microsoft copyright, but they may say
"what's this" when they see a "copyleft". Non-lawyers think they
understand "free" but it turns out to have a secondary, different,
meaning than the first one that came to mind - and the non-lawyers
start getting scared and running to the lawyers.
But what's done is done and FSF software will just have to bear with
it..
