Like it or not, the FTP-master's are the supreme court of the land. They decide what goes in an what does not. Troup did not explain why he thinks the OPL passes the DFSG, but I will assume that he read the bug report. Unless you have new arguments, I think the decision is made. Of course, they do make mistakes [1] [2], but I assume that they had just never considered those arguments. I think the only option left is to propose a GR.
