What you says applies to every import not PD, CC0 or PDDL licensed, as

In addition to those, there's also the possibility of an explicit
permission for OSM, as I mentioned in my first mail. I hope someone with
more legal knowledge than myself can properly answer Vincent's question
about the wording of that permission.
But yes, this issue is not limited to ODbL.
I can't see why Vincent's proposed import is different from other
imports we already did in the past (ODbL, CC-BY or OGL licensed).
There's nothing special about Vincent's proposed import from this legal
point of view. In my opinion, we should indeed refrain from importing
data under such licenses as a general rule.
That such imports have been performed in the past is true. At least in
my case, however, the reason why I didn't raise similar objections back
then is simply that I didn't pay close enough attention.
Third-party ODbL-licensed data can be imported:
