Indeed, but it’s not license compatibility - in Open Source world that problem can only happen with GPL.

  How is that not license compatability? If the license prevents otherwise useful software from being used in the base system, what would you call it?

    The term „license incompatibility” is used in situations where you cannot use of a different license in a single program. Usual example is incompatibility between GPL and anything that’s not a subset of GPL. The situation here is different: it’s about distribution, and it’s up to you, the distributor, to decide whether you want to include restrictively licensed software or not. With license incompatibility, you don’t get that choice: you just cannot legally distribute it.
