The license can specify that changes be identified without requiring that sections never be changed or removed. You might as well argue against the GPL on the grounds that someone might add a lot of stupid bugs into your program and then redistribute it, thus making you look like an incompetent programmer. This is why Section 2 of the GPL requires prominent notice of any changes made. I am less familiar with the GFDL, but I expect it includes a similar requirement. So leave the straw men out of this, please. (Though admittedly we might have less to discuss then.) Craig
