It's a freedom that does not affect 99% of users.

It does affect the the richest, most abusive corporations though.

So requiring that anyone that runs your code and tries to publish a paper can only do with your approval (which is a real license that exist) is fine also? Saying "anyone can use this however they want" is much easier to check for that coming up with rules (and licenses) that allow for the BSL but not for the above academic licenses.
