License - original source?
But the problem is, that for a clause with very little practical
benefit, it has a significant practical disadvantage, because it makes
it much more difficult to redistribute the data as part of other
packages (like software packages) where it is common for people to
only scan the overall license. For example, Python packages can be
downloaded automatically with ``pip install nibabel`` or similar, with
no chance for you to review a license, unless you want to. This is
perfectly sensible for something like a BSD license, where problems
only come up when the person wants to distribute a modified version,
but it doesn't fit the spirit of the no-id license, because it would
be easy for the person not to read the license for the data in
particular.
