My impression is that enacting the termination clause of GPL makes Stockfish non-DSFG.
If the Stockfish developers believe a party has broken the terms of a license, they can do any of:
* enact the termination clause, and thus make Stockfish non-DSFG
* raise a court case against the party for breach of license
The Stockfish developers happen to have done both.

Even if it was tested in one jurisdiction, it might not apply in others.
