Probably because we disagree what constitutes an improvement.

I consider the current "Copyright & License" link nicely integrated with 
the UI. The copyright page itself is well written and - as far as I can 
tell - legally appropriate.

It's a much neater solution than the widespread "put legal stuff right 
on top of the map where it visually clashes with the map content" 
approach encouraged by the defaults built into several map apis.
