Yes, that is exactly my point. One should distinguish this two points.
Actually there is some weird copyright issue involved also (I have to
look it up, but I think it had something to do with some propaganda

in Bavaria which used that as a trick to avoid it getting propagated...
but I really have to look it up, my memory is very fuzzy on that.)
