The comparison section says the MIT license is not "free" because it's not copyleft. How come is more permissive considered less free?

That's not what it says.

It's a table comparing Olive to Vanilla. In the "feature" column there is a row for "Free Software".

It's not saying one is less free than the other. It's saying what you already know: MIT license is not copyleft.

But it’s saying that tailwind isn’t free software because it is MIT licensed. Why doesn’t MIT license count as free software?

Because it's not Free Software™.

Yeah I'm still not following the loaded premise of this question. It's just a table telling people what the project is about.

An MIT-licensed project trying to not scare people away might have the same comparison table in their readme. They'd just flip around the green checkmark and red X.
