Objaverse-XL is ODC-By as a collection but each object has its own license. What fraction of objects have verifiable, correctly-recorded licenses, and how should downstream asset libraries filter and attribute them?

Why this is still open: Only the README license statement was read; no audit of per-object license accuracy was found in this pass.
