> Quite a remarkable lack of IANAL…

I think people have just figured out that "IANAL" goes without saying in any online public discussion, unless for whatever reason it happens to be in a forum where arbitrary participants are especially likely to be lawyers. This is not a commercial context where fraud would be a concern, and even if the speaker was a lawyer there is no reasonable expectation of any attorney-client relationship between random participants in a public discussion. "IANAL" flags are superfluous.

> Very different from falsely claiming the release is OSI compliant or whatever the legalese is...

The de facto accepted way to say that a license is OSI compliant is to refer to it as "open source".
