I guess the point to be made about piracy of fonts and the same origin restriction is this. If I write a page that *embeds* a font on your site, I might be able to persuade myself that *I* didn't steal it, since I never even downloaded it. But if I have to download and re-host it, because that site has a same-origin restriction, I don't have this (admittedly small) fig leaf to hide behind.
