No, "same" and "less" are not the only choices. There is also "more but different." Which is what it must be because they ARE different. They have different properties and require different rules.
If you could instantly and at no cost blast a thousand identical copies of a paperback to everyone on your email list, I assure you, you would not have the rights you have now.
The fact that they are DIFFERENT means that they can be allowed DIFFERENT rules.
Now, whether that set of different rules is "more" "less" "better" or "worse" is a different matter. But there is no rational argument to made, imho, that they need be the SAME for same's sake alone.
