I'll take the bait.
The only "restriction" the GPL has is the requirement for you to share back your code. It's essentially saying: "Give to others the same thing I gave to you". It's a mutual treatment.
Calling that "how much you restrict others from using the code" is like saying demanding respect from others after respecting them first is "restricting how others are able to treat you".
Sure, you are technically right, but this "restriction" is there to ensure everyone is treated with the same benefits.
