Thanks.

I don't think this is a good argument.  For example, it may be that the
other CC-* licenses are more common than CC0.  But there are complex
reasons why adding those CC-* licenses to common-licenses will take more
work.  We shouldn't let that block adding CC0 just because it is not the
most common CC license.
