IANAL, so honest question - is that actually true? Is it legal to sell a license to a public domain work? Is it OK to fail to tell the person you're signing the contract with that they don't need it?

That's sort of like me selling you a driving license - when you already have one, and I don't actually have any authority to grant or rescind that permission either way. I mean; sure... you will have the permission after the sale, but it's at least a pretty dubious construction.
