Ok.

More generally on this topic, the requirement to include the copyright
and licence in the permissive licences is only really codifying best
practice.  That's especially true for open source derivatives, where the
implied warranty that the supplier has the right to issue the end user
licence, or even distribute the software, is being waived.

Sincerely I don't fully understand this sentence. Are you saying that if license A allows me to use, modify and distribuite the code of product A (like BSD, and ISC are saying), then is it implicit by common laws that I can distribuite the software using my license terms?

This will simplify a lot the interpretation of BSD and ISC licenses.
