   That's right, you didn't write "modify".  However, under the law
   what you describe would be considered modification.

No, it would not, ideas cannot be copyrighted.  And if that was the
case, all copyleft licenses would be illegal, since by your incorrect
interpretation they would be deriviates.  Which they are not.
