While a theoretical example is good, it's still only theoretical, and I
suspect beneath the radar of caring for the big players.

A lot of people have stuck their neck out for this; to get these people to
act, we have to at least be willing to do the same.

You have to make it clear that wherever the text in XYZ appears in ABC, that

Since an individual rule can't be copyrighted, there's doubt if a specific
software implementation of a specific rule needs to be OGL'd... but like I
said, we need a specific example that people can pick apart to say "this is
wrong" and "that works" to.
