Nonsense, of course. Were the rights holders not interested in the
right to exclude, they would release the work into the public domain.
The purpose of a license is to allow certain parties to do certain
things based on certain conditions, and thus to exclude other parties,
other actions, and those who disobey the conditions.

Silly sophistry. Sad, really.
