No, it would only help clear up Jelsoft's opinions. I'd happily release an (equally valid) opinion of what the clause means, but, frankly, that would also just be an opinion.
As FASHerman says, above, if Jelsoft wish to assert that it means something other than what I think it means, in a manner more than just saying "well, umm, this is what we think", they need to assert it according to proper legal process. In other words, they need to take action against someone using the hack; however, I wouldn't recommend to them that they do that, for reasons stated previously by various people.
