I find this oft-repeated argument to be totally bogus. It's like saying that
I shouldn't paint my house because the person who owns it in 10 years time
might not like it.
If OSMers in 2020 don't like the license they are free to change it or to
start a new project just as people are today.

Starting a new project would be like rebuilding the whole house, just to
make it a new color. The upgrade clause is like repainting the house,
but restricting this to only very few colors, might make a future owner
unhappy.
