 I didn't "chose" to "ignore" "This".  I avoided quoting a large chunk
 of text that didn't relate directly to my question.  Since you want
 everything spelled out: can you explain what do you mean by "the false
 idea that one must be the copyright owner on the components of a
 derived or compiled work in order to ensure that the the entirety of
 that work is available under some license terms", please?  I'm
 obviously missing some subtle point since you seem to be saying that
 this is false in general.
