Thanks. The question was meant more rhetorically, since lawyers (I also studied law) usually have a hard time with OSS licenses, and many developers make assumptions that often don't match reality. A seemingly "well accepted" assumption often turns out to be a costly mistake. I therefore share your recommendation: tread cautiously.

Why do lawyers have a hard time with OSS licenses?

  Because the licenses often do not use the established legal language, or are not formulated with respect to existing legislation or international agreements.
