In effect you are saying not to worry about the legal requirements in

I am assuming that in the future OSMF will read the CTs and pause to
think before breaking the terms of an agreement that is the only thing
allowing them to use contributions.
So your whole premise that its OK to add data which requires attribution
on the basis the data will be removed if the attribution requirement is
removed rests upon:
a) the assumption that its OK to break the legal requirements of the
CT's because of an implied assumption about how the OSMF will behave in
the future
I don't understand this point, sorry.
b) the assumption that all data which requires attribution will be
tagged as such (and there is no requirement at present for it to do so,
just good practice)
c) the assumption that the attribution tag cant be changed.
That seems a lot of assumptios to me.
Attribution will need some technical means of recording and representation.
I'm not assuming tags cannot be changed. That was an example. Better
examples can clearly be found. :-)
