I don’t think it is that matter whether a license is OSI compliant or not. The more important one is whether it is a Free Software License compliant like GPL3 preferably.

Sigh. Again.

"Free software" is not coterminous with copyleft. It includes copyleft and non copyleft free licenses like BSD. Even Stallman would happily call BSD- or MIT-licensed stuff free software.

The OSD was carefully chosen to incorporate what was already known as free software.
