It's not all that unusual for conferences to require that the material
submitted for the conference be licensed in a specific manner; if you
plan on presenting, some DFSG free license of the material you present
should be expected so portions of the work can be utilized in main or
otherwise

Even within Debian, it's become clear to me that, if we want DFSG-free
things,

Fine. So, as I understand, the only possible problem is documentation,
since the license doesn't explicitly give permission to modify it or
distribute modified versions. It's only speaking of 'the code'.
All the documentation
And your argument is flawed. God himself didn't directly author any
part of the Bible at all. ;-) According to Christian doctrine, God
*inspired* various people to write the *entire Bible*. According to
Jewish doctrine, the same holds true for the Torah.
The KJV of the Bible was

Of course, within Debian DFSG-freeness isn't mandatory or enforced: you
can upload to non-free instead of main just by tweaking your control file.
The response is predictable, but here it is anyway: non-free isn't within
