If a license doesn't express a need, it is not needed. That's the very nature of it. > The sentence "No permission is given for modes of distribution that > deny users that run covered works the full exercise of the legal > rights granted by this License" is pretty clear. It only applies to a GPLed software. If a non-GPL software is run with opacity, there is no problem. Even if you run a GPL software in opaque storage, but have access to the source, I think there still is no problem, as you are then granted the full exercise of the legal rights granted by the GPL. > The second paragraph has a slightly different twist to it.

Which, it is worth noting it, would not be the case with a constructor-based system. Though the constructor could help design such a system.
