Let me second Simon's praise for your pithy formulation. May I also stress
how important it is to recognize that messaging is inherently closed-world
(to the set of those accepting its cartelized agreements) while publishing
recognizes that it has no control (and may have no knowledge of) derivative
works downstream.
