"We promise that we will not enforce" is perhaps a funny way not to grant a license, but making it sound like they do. This seems almost purposefully designed to look open-source to laypeople, while being carefully written in a way that ensures it will be vetoed by any corporate lawyer vetting the license.

Is "we promise not to enforce" legally binding I wonder, in which case it is de-facto a license? IANAL but it's an interesting concept.
