I think that both are going to end up as being seen as over-reach. Take the case of conjoined twins which have to be separated for one of them to survive. The action of separation will mean every nurse/doctor who were part of the operation can no longer use the software. The parents for either allowing the operation (and one of their children dieing) or not allowing the operation (and both dieing) and finally the surviving twin have all done something that under either license means their rights have been terminated.
Going further, every action you do at some point will impair some one's ability to exercise the permissions. The "I can't tell my kid to get off the computer anymore." but also "I allowed my kid to use the computer to 6 am and they were impaired in the ability to use the software the next day". You can't serve alcohol or any other item which impairs reasoning ability. You can't stop someone from getting hit by a truck NOR can you allow them to be hit by the truck. [I expect that some of my examples are going way too far legally.. but I also expect that they may be close to what a legal argument would be that a court would say whether the license was 'valid' in the first place.]
