> There are two problems that reasonably explain the decision
Boy do I hate these kinds of after-the-fact, speculative "explanations"—anachronistic rationalizations that come out of a mental exercise to justify what is by retroactively (and non-authoritatively) trying to invent a plausible why.
And if you know the personality and values of the progenitor of the whole thing, then you know that this better-safe-than-sorry deference to hair-splittingly nuanced IP hurdles (that in practice don't really exist) is not the MO.
Besides that, requiring public domain/CC0 doesn't solve either of those problems.
