Well as everyone seems to know and speak for the others, here's my take.
Regardless of copyleft -- which I'm certain could be expressed in a BSD-like concise way -- I would personally say that BSD-style licenses are for humans and GPL-style for lawyers.
If you need a lawyer to understand your freedom you are not free anymore. Stop feeding the lawyers and the bureaucrats.
Best,
Daniel
