Oh, I agree completely and that is a big part of my game plan. However, if NC 
were more clear, I might try promoting those works as well. As it is, I think 
that is too dangerous to mess with them.

Look, I make no bones about BY-SA being my favourite CC licence. That said, I 
do not feel it is out of line trying to give input towards improving all of 
the CC licences where I have ideas that might help.
