As mad as I am about the Cease and Desist, I do see WB's point in doing this, and it really comes down to 2 things: Bethesda and the Creation Kit. If you read the Terms and Conditions for the CK, it says,
"You automatically grant to Bethesda Softworks the irrevocable, perpetual, royalty free, sublicensable right and license under all applicable copyrights and intellectual property rights laws to use, reproduce, modify, adapt, perform, display, distribute and otherwise exploit and/or dispose of the New Materials (or any part of the New Materials) in any way Bethesda Softworks, or its respective designee(s), sees fit."
WB probably did their homework, and realized that this could lead to future copyright disagreements with Bethesda.
Still sucks, though.
