Then she's admitting that she wouldn't have made any money from threader/tumblr users anyway, so what exactly is the issue?

She used to get requests to turn her threads into blog posts; now she does not.

Also, she didn’t seem to necessarily want money from them, but somewhat similarly to GPL’d open source projects, doesn’t like scrapers making money off of her work. Plenty of software devs license their work similarly to that as well, and it sounds reasonable to me.
