I disagree that it is the opposite. In fact I think it is more like LucasFilm is saying Just Sue Me. From the article Seth (I am assuming he is a reliable source as I know nothing about the film industry) seems to think that if LucasFilms was sued that they would lose (or settle), but luckily people, specifically Darth, are either to lazy or the amount they would win wouldn't cover the legal expenses of suing. So in effect LucasFilms is pretending like the risk of litigation isn't there and it is working out OK for them so far. Just like the experiences of PUD.
