What you describe is what many believe the NC license is, but what in
fact it is not. You describe a totally new license. I would like to
see a legally workable definition for that (I have not seen one), but
please let us keep that to a separate thread.
With regard to the present NC-3.0 definition, CC cannot fundamentally
change the existing contracts. At most it can clarify the meaning
where there was room for misunderstanding about intentions. However,
Creative Commons can easily change the name, the label and the brand.
My present proposal is based on keeping the present very restrictive
legal re-use permission, while avoiding to label it with something
that sounds like a desirable "non-commercial realm" (and thus
misleading millions of people into believe the would contribute to
such a realm when licensing a work of theirs as "NC-3.0").
