Agree that it isn't a good choice if what you want is the most permissive, inclusive license.
(Completely with you there, and hadn't noticed the misjudged "with the openness, you can't beat the WTFPL" above.)

I wouldn't and don't use it for my projects, but I'd absolutely defend anyone else's choice to do so.
The choice to go with a license that actively eschews the standard reliance on legalese is a form of self expression. If someone chooses to use it and disregard the supposed legal risk, then I totally respect that.
