That is correct.  It is perfectly legal to redistribute OGC under the
license without adding anything new.

#7 is far more than a no-coat-tails clause.  It is the meat of the language
that prohibits other from using your Product Identity in any fashion.

Product Identity is also used in 1(d) where it says "<Open Gaming Content>
means any work covered by this License, including translations and
derivative works under copyright law, but specifically excludes Product
Identity. "

So EVERYTHING in your OGL-covered work that isn't Product Identity is Open
Gaming Content.
