I've never written anything anyone would want to use and modify. (My code is
crap.) But I can still make my code free for everyone (users and developers
alike). I don't even care about maintaining credit for my work. Ha! In fact,
it's probably better for me to disavow it.

That would make for an interesting dogfooding run since the tool

Uh...but if I use your tool, then I can't claim ignorance when I'm getting sued
for copyright violations.
