The very name "permissive" licenses is problematic, because it steers the discussion towards the point of view of software middlemen, not of users.
From the point of view of a user, a copylefted software allows the user to do more things: the license grants them permission to see and change the source code of the software, no matter how they got it. With so-called permissive software, the user may be stripped of this permission by third parties.
