The usual idea is that because its "Free" Software you can't restrict it in anyway... and that the 'Freedom' trumps any other license or agreement. And I will bet that if you have enough money, there will be lawyers who will come up with ways to argue that is a valid interpretation.. and will argue it over and over again as long as you have money.
I find it funny how people love to complain because companies like RedHat and SuSE/Novell have found a way to make a business out of a free product. There is nothing forcing you to use their distro.
That's fine. But I think no one here has problems with that. I think the discussion is rather how it is played by the rules of the GPL. That's a good and fair question.
