Also, go READ the CC license text at creativecommons.org and you will see, it is VASTLY more clear on all the points where OGL admits of some grey. I tend to agree with you that OGL could be enforced. I don't think very many sane lawyers will even go near trying to fight the CC-BY-SA license. They won't be litigating against Paizo, some tiny company, they will be litigating against a license that has been battle tested and who's effectiveness a lot of people with deep pockets and a willingness to fight will back up! I mean, Hasbro is big, they might overmatch the whole open content community, perhaps, but they risk invoking the attention of something like Google, which Hasbro doesn't want to mess with... Its a MUCH different kind of situation.</p></blockquote><p></p>
