IIRC, the choice offered was 'I approve the process' or 'I do not approve the
process'.  It wasn't quite clear whether OSMF members were being asked to vote
on the licence change itself, or just to express satisfaction with the actions
taken and planned by the licence working group.

At that stage, didn't the plan still include a public vote of OSM contributors?
Perhaps some OSMF members voted 'approve' on the basis of the earlier plan, 
happy
to proceed to a public vote and see what the community thought, but would not
have voted 'approve' if it were made clear that the new plan was to impose the
change unilaterally.
