This is irrelevant. As noted during the GPLv3 review process, both 'derivative' and 'distribution' are specific legal terms a license can not redefine. A license writer that does not like the boundaries of those terms must either use different terms (like the GPL v3 did for conveyance) or explicitely state that a use, even though it is a distribution (or derivation) in legal terms is exempt from the conditions the licence imposes to derivatives or distribution as a whole. I don't see anywhere in the OFL text where embedding is exempt from distribution clauses. And you can't argue it is not distribution because legaly – it is. -- Nicolas Mailhot
