> I feel that applying "common sense" to legal documents may lead you into trouble.
Of course IANAL and we are not even talking about the legal aspect here, but legally speaking to be pedantic, the common sense does play a role when there is a reason to believe that some party failed to understand a deeper legal meaning. You can't arbitrarily replace any word in legal documents provided that definitions are given in advance, after all.
> That aside, there are as many governance models are there are licenses - and they two are not linked in any way.
Nominally not, but they are linked in the way that some sort of openness is heavily expected for most "open source" projects.
