What if the license lacks consideration?
If it lacks consideration it is not a contract. If it is not a contract
it is not a license.
And if it is not circular, it isn't reasoning. Or something.
Where does he get this notion that every license is a contract? They're
similar, certainly, but, AFAIK, one isn't a subset of the other.

"Whether express or implied, a license is a contract 'governed
by ordinary principles of state contract law.'"; McCoy v. Mitsuboshi
Cutlery, Inc., 67. F.3d 917, (United States Court of Appeals for the
Federal Circuit 1995)
That ruling is from the same appellate circuit that issued the Jacobsen
v. Katzer decision.
