OSD #6 (fields of endeavor) and research vs commercial rights

Looking at OSD #6, No Discrimination Against Fields of Endeavor,
I had imagined that it meant, among other things, that the
license could not have one set of terms for commercial use and
a different set of terms for research use. Yet there appear
to be a few approved licenses that make such a discrimination,
such as the Apple Public Source License (ver 1.2), and the
Reciprocal Public License (ver 1.1). Can someone clarify?
Thanks.
