Its not that simple. Say you receive a copy of a mostly bsd-origin work previously modified by adding a few GPL-covered lines and applying the GPL to the whole as required for #3 at that step. You now agree to the GPL terms in order to be permitted to give someone else a copy of the whole work.
Yes, that is true for the "work as a whole".
At this point, you've agreed not to pick out parts of the code and distribute under the license of its origin.
That's not true. Even if the terms of the GPL *said* that it was true, copyright law doesn't allow it that power. You cannot change the license on a work for which you are not the copyright holder.
