Definitions are not what matters in the end. Why doesn't the viral and restrictive element of GNU's GPL license make the license "non-open"?

Definitions are what matter, they're the reason you can use words and I can understand what you mean by them.

"Open source" has a definition (https://opensource.org/osd) and the GPL meets it, because it doesn't prevent derived worries from being distributed under the same license.
