Which is exactly the point, unless ODBL data can be imported (or
traced or ....) it makes little difference to me what license they are
using, it certainly doesn't prove that it is more useful in a court of
law that cc-by-sa.

As others have pointed out, it almost seems self defeating using a
share a like license if improvements to the data can't then be used in
the OSM DB.
