I guess you can claim that you do not like the idea, but so far the
W3C is the only organization I know that is putting this practice to
test.

I've seen the opposite happen actually on  the other side of the
fence. The majority of DOM Parsing & Serialization was written under
CC0. However, an organization with a more restrictive license
maintained their copy better and therefore the CC0 copy was abandoned.
This is a shame since more web platform documentation became
encumbered, but it also demonstrates that those advocating CC0 are not
interested in fragmentation.
