Yeah, so from other info it looks like the scope of the license in much wider than of AGPL and includes other (not well defined) supporting software where in AGPL it only includes the software licensed. Also AGPL kicks in on modification of the software where the SSPL on mere use of it.
So just the fact you install and run some program with SSPL would mean that you suddenly need to licenses who know what else. No other license does that.
