Tentative assumption rather than confidence, but your explanation has
mostly persuaded me.

So assuming an digital artifact without digital out is effectively TPM,
and assuming no parallel distribution, would it be possible for an
electronic greeting card to comply with a CC license?  By making very
clear that lack of digital out is not a matter of TPM but of expense,
e.g., documenting the chip's pinout?
