It's reasonable if you want to attach adverts to it and allow others
to do so, while witholding the freedom to edit or remove those adverts.

If one wants to forbid all changes, then releasing under a CC-nd
licence is a reasonable action. Not free software, though, which is
what this list usually likes and a free software operating system
should have free software manuals.
