Kind of a funny thing, but from what I see, totally understandable. The third party, Valve in this case, doesn't actually know who created what, just that one piece of media has stuff from a different, unrelated piece of media which can cause lawsuits if stolen. I think. Idk, IANAL, and I'm also not a lawyer.

Licensing it open source would also solve this issue
