The race to replace Redis

> If the drafters of the SSPL hadn't chosen to require that all of the "Service Source Code" itself be made available under the SSPL, but instead permitted that code to be distributed under any SSPL-compatible license, much of this problem would disappear. Presumably they made that choice for what they considered to be a good reason.

Or are they non-lawyers going under the (somewhat common) misapprehension that mixing source modules under different licences can change the licence ... a lot of people seem to think that mixing GPL and BSD magically transmutes the BSD code into GPL code ...
