The assertion by the FSF that particular uses of GPL-licensed software are constrained by the license
Ah, that's what I was missing. When did they assert that the use by itself (with no redistribution) is constrained by the GPL? That seems to go directly against their FAQ:
If I only make copies of a GPL-covered program and run them, without distributing or
conveying them to others, what does the license require of me?
Nothing. The GPL does not place any conditions on this activity.
