Maybe we just have too high an opinion of your intelligence?

Is there any evidence that that's {my,our,his} intent?  I agree that
the lack of copyright permissions is a little unusual, but it makes
perfect sense once you understand it.  You simply have no right to
copy what Dan has given you a copy of.  So why include a copyright
permissions message, when it would be empty?  To give people the warm
fuzzies?  Get your own warm fuzzies, quit trying to take ours.
