Ok.  For the intentionally or unintentionally obtuse:

1) Both variants (and representative individuals e.g. RMS and Theo)
encourage making useful software, using the software, and making money
from the software.

2) Copyright statements (aka licenses) are just another tool.  Different
tools are needed to accomplish different tasks.  Use the right tool for
the right job.  Get over it.

3) There is one difference between the two in one aspect of how
'freedom' is defined, especially in the context of software copyright
statements.  They're not going to agree, they don't have to agree.
Get over it.

4) Other than that difference, there is great overlap between the chosen
copyright statements.  That appears to be the main idea behind Pau's
comment.

5) Cultivating antagonism between allies *is* a key part of the strategy
used by the main opponent to OpenBSD.  It wastes resources.  In
contrast, constructive competition leads to improvement.
