Why should they? The law is supposed to reflect what people of good 
will want. If people of good will "just don't get it", something may 
be wrong with the law.

As an interface designer I always get a little bit miffed (just an 
eensy teensy bit :-)) when somebody claims that "they just don't get 
X", because "they" usually aren't supposed to.

Actually, I was surprised how much of copyright was understood. What 
were your qualms specifically?
