You are missing the point. It doesn't matter if
the GPL isn't a EULA. What matters is that it is
a license. If you own your copy, then you don't have
a license any more. Your first sale right depends
on the transaction being a sale, not a licensed use.

Once it is a sale, you have your copy and first sale
rights, but to get that you have to give up the
license.

One or the other. So which do you want most, first
sale or the GPL?"

alexander.
