Maybe my English is imprecise, but that's not what I tried to express. We may have to disagree that the OracleVsGoogle fallout is relevant in the hypothetical case of Axolotl IP, but as we're both not lawyers, it's moot to continue that debate.

It wouldn't cost Moxie anything to clear such concerns, even if it's just a handful of HN reader (including me), in light of this public event and would increase the positive profile of the protocol. You make it seem like by documenting that clearly Moxie would admit to doing something, but that's wrong and a curious way to look at things, especially as you're confident of there being no problem like that.
