So what exactly is the problem with requiring credit "reasonable to the medium or means"?
The fact that we don't seem to be able to agree on what is reasonable. (It would be nice if we could agree it between us rather than having to go to court over it...)
Therein lies the problem with using terms like "reasonable" in a legal document. It's a subjective term, and there are plenty of definitions that are going to work for some people and not others. Arguing over what is and what is not reasonable is a wasted exercise: The best we can do it put the issue to a vote and go with the opinion expressed by the voting majority.
That's the epitome of "tyranny of the majority".
