In my opinion it's the latter. There's a minor change you could make to the SSPL that would take it from "practically impossible to comply with" to something that just about anyone building a service with FOSS dependencies could comply with: https://www.terracrypt.net/posts/the-sspl-is-not-a-reasonable-copyleft-license-but-it-maybe-could-be.html https://www.terracrypt.net/posts/the-sspl-is-not-a-reasonabl...
Essentially, add EUPL-like license compatibility clauses for dependencies to the SSPL.
I'm not saying this is exactly what we should do to accomplish that goal, but I think it's worth considering, and probably has a reasonable shot at being considered a free software license.
