Under your suggestion, someone could publish a closed monster manual
with 100 open content monsters and 10 new closed ones and identify none
of the 100 monsters as open. That doesn't sound workable to me.

I think it's a good rule for the OGL to require that you identify
all of the open content that you use from others. It encourages reuse,
which enriches the open gaming community and makes this concept more
valuable for everyone. I think it's a small price to pay for having
a free community to draw material from.
