Does it? You can run the software with AGPL. You simply need to contribute it back to the main project.
That’s a marked difference.

Close, but not quite! Under the AGPL, you only need to make the source code available to the people who interact with the software over a computer network. You don't necessarily need to contribute the code back to the main project.

A totally different restriction, yes, but a restriction that goes against OPs “no restriction to run” clause none the less.

Telling the user that they cannot run software in production is a restriction on the purpose for which the software can be ran. Telling the user that the source of the software must be made available to other users whom the software is distributed to over a computer network is not a restriction on the purpose for which the software can be ran, because it can still be ran for any purpose.
