Yes.  I thought I pointed this distinction out weeks ago, but
perhaps I'm losing my mind.  The goal is not to exempt authors
from asserting their own compliance to 5378, but to avoid their
having to make any assertions on behalf of others (or even to
explicitly identify those other beyond our normal requirements
for acknowledgement).
