It left me blinking too. Which OSD clause requires the distribution terms to permit use?
I believe that position here is that OSD only covers copyright licensing and that US copyright law gives permission to use software (for copyright purposes) to anyone with a copy. UK law does require an explicit use permission.
Because it is US-centric, there was no conception that you might need to give an explicit permission to use.
