I have seen similar discussions before and have often wondered about a point that may relate.
A person writing produces fruit, why should they not be allowed to control/profit from their fruit according to their own desires? If they die why should their heirs not be able to control that fruit which they inherited.
Seems we allow rich people that make their fruit to control most of their fruit as well as pass it on to kids (realizing taxes are heavy, they still control a fair portion).
Personally, I allow free distribution of my work, though have no idea why anyone would want to - but that was a personal choice of how my labor is used not the choice of someone else wanting to control my work.
