It’s a good question. Textbook companies especially would be pretty enthusiastic about a new “right to learn” monetization strategy. And imagine how lucrative it would be if you could prove some major artist didn’t copy your work, but learned from your work. The whole chain of scientific and artistic development could be monetized in perpetuity.
I think this is a dangerous road with little upside for anyone outside of IP aggregators.
