The exclusive rights granted by copyright law are fine-grained.
There is no basis in copyright law for the ludicrous claim that
an author who grants permission to copy and distribute his work

that work as part of a collective work. This is merely your usual
lying, twisting, and spinning to avoid the obvious fact that the
GPL works exactly as its authors intended it to.
