Hi, I saw you quoted one of my old blog posts on CC usage. It is very outdated by now! Current estimates of the number of CC licensed content are at about 100 million, not 40.

Why not wait to see how CC 0 develops before licence proliferation?

CC 0 seems to meet your criteria. If it does not, then why not?
