Please understand that the content of a book was not seen as property for most of recorded history. The introduction of this idea into the public mind, and the ratification of copyright laws required the acceptance of quite a few number of if's along property conception lines. But these are just conceptions after all.
Abandoning copyright would require some more if's as well. Please accept these new if's.
