A large part of this comment focuses on the complexity of the ODbL.
While simplicity is better, I think we should be allowed a reasonable
amount of complexity in the writing of the license, if our goal is to
make a license that can be reused by others, and if it makes the license
more efficient and suited to our needs.

My point is that licenses like CC or GPL are not that simple either, but
their extended use makes them well-known and in this case a moderate
amount of complexity is not a problem.
