"License terms are compatible, but the licenser does not guarantee for it. 4c of the license explicitly states: "Affirmer disclaims responsibility for clearing rights of other persons that may apply to the Work or any use thereof, including without limitation any person's Copyright and Related Rights in the Work. Further, Affirmer disclaims responsibility for obtaining any necessary consents, permissions or other rights required for any use of the Work."" For example Wikidata is CC0 but mostly copyright incompatible with OSM and unusable for imports in general.
