Honestly, I think "the framers" got it right here.
Too much communicating of the ethics would have bogged down the useful legal work.
My take is, Free Software actually won and we're in a post-that world.

The reason Free/Libre Open Source Software wins - and always will do in the long run - is because the four freedoms are super-simple and they reflect how the natural world works.
I meant the useful legal work too. AKA, get the four freedoms and law in line as much as possible and no more.
You're right, most all the other licences range from "hmm interesting experiment" to "well that's just goofy."
