Libre culture is a very very broad topic, and while it's perfectly okay for a conversation to stray, I do ask that we keep things generally on topic.

Me too. If you haven't heard of it yet, here is one implementation of the general ideas in this essay: https://firstdonoharm.dev/ It's called The Hippocratic License (HL3).

Instead of just copyleft, it enforces moral obligations that distributers of the code must follow. Also it's modular; so you can choose what you want to include for your project.

I'm a bit iffy on that idea, because it can cause the license some branding issues. Although each combination of modules has a different name. E.g, a license with all HL3 modules is called HL3-FULL. So it might not be a huge problem.
