A broken CC-by-SA can be seen as combining the disadvantages of PD (allows malicious users to use the data in undesirable ways) with those of working SA (limits what benevolent users can do with the data). It's entirely consistent to believe that CC-by-SA is therefore worse than both PD and working SA. Holding this opinion is compatible with both prefering PD over working SA and prefering working SA over PD.
