I have read that page, but I don't understand how interoperability is related
here? The problem is that strong copyleft licences such as the GPL impose
restrictions on what are the acceptable licenses they can be linked against,
which undermines compatibility. I'm not sure I'm happy with that, but many
developers seem to like using these licences.
