You seem to be assuming that a more permissive license is good. I don't believe this is true. Linux kernel is a great example of a project where going more permissive would be a terrible idea.

Saying I believe one specific project—of which I was a major contributor and knew intimately—would benefit from a more permissive license in no way means I think every other project should do the same. Every case is different, and my projects have different licenses according to what makes sense. Please don’t extrapolate and assume someone’s general position from one example.
