I'm not sure I fully understand - whilst I agree there's been useful legal work, we now have such a plethora of licenses I ended up having to back what I'd call basic common sense when someone was suggesting using a highly restrictive "community" license that had ridiculous intents such as saying you can't use it in this particular industry because that industry is "bad".
The reason Free/Libre Open Source Software wins - and always will do in the long run - is because the four freedoms are super-simple and they reflect how the natural world works.
Oh, you and I 100% agree.
I meant the useful legal work too. AKA, get the four freedoms and law in line as much as possible and no more.
You're right, most all the other licences range from "hmm interesting experiment" to "well that's just goofy."
