I agree with what you're saying, and I'll add a related flaw: under the current copyright model it is also possible that the creator or publisher will never recover the cost of producing the work.

So on the one hand you have creators and their descendents profiting immensely, and on the other hand you have creators or publishers losing money. That is an inherently unjust system from their perspective too.
