Respectfully, no one is suggesting deprecating copyleft in any way. It's a
little bit unfair to say copyleft can only work of it gets modified to your
or MongoDbs preferences.

Back to the issue at hand, I don't see how anyone can reasonably say this
doesn't violate the plain wording and spirit of OSD9. Like is it being
suggested that the rights provided by network copyleft doesn't have to
fully comply with the OSD itself? If that's what's being suggested, it
strikes me as an absurd result.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something and if I am, please do clarify.
