So do we have a responsibility to
educate the contributors than misusing their ignorance in such cases?
The three points you raise are legally untested in most countries and
even CC's FAQ is not legal advice. For us, point 1 is covered by ToU,
but for 2 and 3 it would be inappropriate to have a ghost CC FAQ, while
giving legal advice is out of question.
The licensing tutorial shown by UploadWizard can certainly be improved
in some way, please propose tweaks:

In general however, rather than controversial edge cases, it's better to
focus the little licensing outreach we manage to have on the really
crucial aspects/mission, in particular how copyleft/-SA is the way while
-NC and -ND generally do the opposite of what folks expect.
