That's the same thing. The redistribution restrictions are part of the license, therefore the license is restrictive, just as the OSI quite clearly says. How are you not understanding that?

You can use the code anyway you'd like, internally, but you can't distribute it (which is what Copyright defines.)
So i can't use it any way i like, i can ONLY use it any way i like internally, because the license restricts it in that way.

And see my above edit regarding the OSI referring to the GPLv2 as restrictive.
