I don't think there are reasons for never <anything> :-)

But if you want reasons why a developer should consider other licences
in specific contexts, then the FSF lists a few good ones along with
their recommendations:
https://www.gnu.org/licenses/license-recommendations.html

And there are other reasons too: https://lkml.org/lkml/2007/6/13/289

We don't have to agree that any of those reasons are valid or anything.
But I hope we can agree that the people behind those concerns can't be
classified as "fundamentally disagreeing with the principles of the
DFSG"?
