Point taken. I think there's a qualitative difference.

With NonCommercial, there are a slew of _uses_ that you can put Works to
that you have to get separate permission for. As a practical matter,
large-scale reproduction and distribution on physical media are almost
impossible, as well as most kinds of public performance, public display,
or broadcast.

With ShareAlike, you just have to keep your derivative works copylefted.
It disallows you from setting monopolistic prices, but it doesn't put a
practical limit on what you can do with the work. As far as I know;
there's probably a good point to make here.
