At the risk of overstressing the point: Your answer would not help in
hypothetical copyright-violation legal proceedings -- and, more
important, would not help LDP avert the public-relations scandal that
would overtake it, if it were observed to violate authors' rights to
their works.

That is true, too.
I mainly wanted to speak out quickly to discourage treating actions as
authorised by the author on account of something LDP has said, which
unfortunately isn't very useful in establishing what the author has
authorised.
