I must admit I've heard similar - and didn't believe a word of it - or
rather that it would stand up. You can't, IMO, publish a list of things
that you can license in SE and then say that people that use only them are
not correctly licensed. Especially if you publish security advice that tells
people (correctly) not to install features they don't use.
