The discussion wasn't about whether or not GPL provides freedom, the
discussion was about the amount of freedom. If least likely everyone
would agree that public domain provides less freedom than GPL, then
I'd think that the same people would also agree that MIT/MacOS™ fit
between PD and GPL in the amount of freedom they provide. Any other
conclusion would seem odd to me.
