Common sense is often not the reflection of the law. Is the DMCA a piece of common sense legislation ? Is the EU Copyright Directive a piece of common sense legislation ? Some might say yes, many others, including myself (as an IP lawyer), no, given the extent to which the powers extended to IP rights holders may be wielded. Debate is irrelevant in the end, the rights in the "work" exist - either they are respected or they aren't, but IMHO that is for the SC to decide and not for the documentation subproject.
