But ZFS is not under that other license (which might be called CDDLv1, but that's confusing). I don't get why new software uses the CDDL over the MPL if you want "file based copyleft". If you want copyleft, just use the GPL.

Not much new software uses the CDDL. Fans of CDDL software typically opt for BSD or Apache licenses.
