It has been a noted point in many IP cases that showing you took action to protect your IP is important in itself, even if the method was ultimately ineffective.
If he ever did have to sue for any reason, having DRM on the work might be akin having a copyright notice on the printed page. The other party can't easily claim that they didn't know or have reason to think it wasn't a protected work.
