It's just there to guide you. They promise that the license works in 
expected ways if you liked the graphical explanation. It's like a higher 
order abstraction in programming languages. If you think CC doesn't work, 
direct your complaints to Larry Lessig, not me. My goal is just to make 
you use the most liberal license so I can steal as much as possible. It's 
only benefical to me if you don't care about licensing.
