Unless, some share-alike advocates would say, the node was created with
reference to a point Y that was share-alike licensed and thus becomes a
derived work.
Also, all this is nice & dandy as long as we operate in the "protection
of individual items" space; as soon as we move to the world of database
protection, then all this becomes moot because you would not even be
allowed to extract a group of PD objects from the collection without the
permission of the database owner (unless it is considered insubstantial).
