I would have thought that Creative Commons would have learned its lesson
about the issues related to model releases, when version 1.0 of the CC
license was released.
If it has, where is the data related to model releases?
Especially since the apparent position of the organization has been that
model releases are too complex, locale specific, industry specific, and
usage specific, to even contemplate a universal model release that is
legally viable worldwide.

Whilst GNU AFFERO GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE is ostensibly both an open
license, and a free license, by selecting it, the implication is that
this is something that will be useful only after the "secret sauce" is
purchased.
Read it here:
https://github.com/creativecommons/list/blob/master/contributing.md
and please let us have your feedback either here or via GitHub Issues.
Creative Commons has copyright law as its area of expertise. Most, if
not all of the software it has developed, or sponsored, has been
abandoned. Consequently, Creative Common lacks the street cred, as a
software developer, to require contributor agreements up front.
