Sure, the premise sounds simple enough, but really, when you have a long document riddled with lawyer speak, at times with questionable interpretation, I think it's at least a little troublesome. But so far it's seemed to work just fine, so I'm probably just paranoid. =x

Restrictive is the right word to use, the GPL is highly restrictive, as is all copyleft me-or-nothing licenses. In v3 it goes even further, trying to prevent the so-called tivoization for instance. Not really sure what else one could call it when contrasting to the permissive, anything-goes BSD or MIT style licenes.
