Virtually all open source licenses are unenforceable due to lack of

That's false, as we can see from this court decision:
<http://www.cafc.uscourts.gov/opinions/08-1001.pdf>
    Having determined that the terms of the Artistic License
    are enforceable copyright conditions, we remand to enable
    the District Court to determine whether Jacobsen has
    demonstrated (1) a likelihood of success on the merits and
    either a presumption of irreparable harm or a demonstration
    of irreparable harm; or (2) a fair chance of success on the
    merits and a clear disparity in the relative hardships and
    tipping in his favor.
