Well I personally dont NEED them obscuring the image... (it is likely
I have moved the view so they arent obscuring anyway)

Shrug no one brought up "fair use", but I mentioned
user needs

It is not significant that somebody can do that or render really large
and cut off the logo if they choose to do so,,, and is entirely
independent of why google might choose not to include there
logos when I print them for my personal use, which google specifically
approves of and considers the only legit use... ie they are asuming
the user is doing what they have approved of instead of assuming
the users are breaking the agreement. (you cant stop the ones
who want to put a little effort in and break the agreement)
So the reason I speculated was so to optimize for me a normal user
making legit use, which will be the truth of the matter in a majority
of
cases.( i hope)
