That is a very fair point, but see also:
3. The rules around “Public Domain” often vary or are unspecified
   jurisdiction to jurisdiction. Adding to the confusion, some
   jurisdictions may not even recognize the concept of “Public Domain”
   (or similar). As such, a license may nevertheless be required or
   implied in these cases.

We already have *some* public domain code in the tree, and are trying
to figure out what to do about that.

Basically, we are quite heavily dependent on corporate contributors,
and we need to keep things simple for them (and their legal
departments).
