> It's worth noting that Ted Nelson's visionary Xanadu project had actually addressed this issue decades ago. In the original design of Project Xanadu, rule 9 states "Every document can contain a royalty mechanism at any desired degree of granularity to ensure payment on any portion accessed, including virtual copies ('transclusions') of all or part of the document."
It's easy to address every possible issue when your project is vaporware and you can just write "royalty mechanism" rather than having to actually implement one.
Yeah, wow. Saying that someone addressed the issue by writing "documents can contain a royalty mechanism" is like saying Jules Verne addressed the issue of manned spaceflight.
