sell things that you actually have the rights to print and sell.

This would exclude the thousands of makers who subscribe to designers like Cinderwing3D, and have permission to print and sell her articulated dragon designs.

It sounds like they do have the rights, and this policy is still causing problems for them because there's a difference between having the rights and being the original creator.

Yes, that part specifically is a bit braindead.

It's probably because they can't be arsed to figure out who has the rights and who doesn't, so they just loaded up the ban shotgun.
