Long-distance trains aren't covered by the ticket, only regional trains.
For example, the trip Munich -> Berlin would take around 10-11 hours with 5-6 different trains you need to catch. If you paid for a long-distance train it would be 4.5 hours with no changes.
True, the ticket is not perfect, but it's still very powerful - and if you're at Uni maybe you can take some time during summer to explore the country. Plus, if you don't get a ICE train, you're Deutschlandticket is still valid for the local transport when you arrive.
