It sounds like you are arguing that you don't have to follow section 7 (PI & Trademarks) if the text in question is not OGC. A document released under the OGL covers the entire document (and bundled works if the courts find that they constitute a single product). Therefore, the prohibition against using trademarks without permission applies even to sections of text that are not marked as OGC. The reference to another book could be seen as implicitly claiming compatibility. It could also be using PI, which is prohibited in all means.
