This is a view not shared by many software companies. If your
interpretation turns out to be correct, many companies will join the
FSF for a copyright extension. However, the prevailing feeling right
now is that dynamic linking already creates a derivative work.
Still remember the times when the FSF was against interface
copyrights? *sigh*
