Our intention was to let you use a term like Dragonborn and add to it through creative design and devlopment. We wanted to avoid copy and past publishing. So we add rules of use but we didn't do a good job of explaining how you can (or can't) use it.
Perhaps you need two lists: One that lists things you may reference and make changes to. And one that lists things that must not be redefined. I'm guessing by the examples that dragonborn, elves and trolls would go on the first list, but AC, hit points and level would go on the latter list.

Of course, I'm guessing that determining which terms belong on which list could cause debate among the various departments that would last for years. So perhaps this isn't such a good idea.

Down on the list: seemingly real close to releasing a notebook essential. It's in layout! Has been for months now. (Just nod politely so I won't cry about this.)
