The Free Software Foundation has *never* advanced a legal argument to
refute the fact that the GPL is contractually unenforceable and

What's your argument that isn't enforceable?
The GPL is unequivocally a contract under U.S. law. (More specifically
it is a contract for a "grant of permission" or license.)

It's just as much a contract as any other EULA.
