that's not exactly the same as prohibiting the removal of a credit
notice, is it? it just says that the author must be identified in a
reasonable manner - which means you CAN remove any existing credit
notice as long as you still identify the author in some reasonable
manner of your own choosing.

but really - don't you have anything better to do than waste time on
trivial pedantry? no wonder this stupid argument has gone on for so
long, it just bogs down in trivia and other distractions.
