I disagree at this point. (surprise! lol)
This, quite easily I think, set's the stage for Eric's work to become hijacked by whatever lunatic want's to parasitically (intentionally or not) attach his nonsense to Eric's work.
For example: I have a large following of superstitious religious zealots that think that my interpretation of 11 dimensional quantum string theory means that aliens bla bla bla. I also have a popular show on the History channel. If I were to find some loose connection to EPD's work, via misinterpretation or whatever, then I could just piggyback my nonsense onto the back of Eric's paper leading thousands into a erroneous theory by hijacking EPD's authority.
I don't like the idea that any nutjob can come in and take EPD's work and do whatever and and up watering it down or any other "unintended" consequence.
...any work others may add to it. I have to think about this further, but the idea is that anyone is free to copy the material and improve on it freely for non-commercial purposes, but such that a printed version can be made that still includes those voluntary additions...
