I think we should look at what
SRD stands for. It is a reference...so, I think what this means is that you can reference our elf but you cannot modify our elf. Right? So...this could be a good thing. By not including a non-copyrighted term like demon, they are saying "You cannot reference our demon" thus allowing you to create your own.
How's that?
