It is possible, it is just inconvenient.

It is the only way of removing the offending text. It is practical, and 
cost is not mentioned as a mitigating factor in the license.

If it's the case that the clause means "you may ask for attribution to 
be removed, but you may easily be ignored", then the licenses should 
state this clearly. They will clash with moral rights if they do so, though.
