Actually, what license you put on anything really doesn't matter if you
don't enforce violation of the terms.
If someone infringes a copyright, the sky doesn't fall - but the
copyright is evidence the plaintiff can use in a suit (or a deterent to
litigation). If you don't file suit, nothing happens.
Same with infringing licenses - if you don't take any action, the terms
of the license aren't in play.
So rather than worry about licenses, one should have a strategy for
enforcement - or blow it off and get back to coding/writing/... ;)
Just 2 cents of opinion...
