A Code of Conduct is a communication tool to align a community around expected behaviors. Having to "read between the lines" to understand the real policy behind a CoC is a serious bug. I agree with sibling comments that say this is a case where clarification is needed.
I care, because my personal policy is "Do whatever, but if you submit the code, you own it, and you better be able to act like you own it." And that's what you're saying their policy means. But that's not what it says, and I in fact strongly disagree with what it says. So the shear between what the words say and the "read between the lines" version is quite literally the difference between a policy I reject outright and a policy I strongly endorse.
