As far as I can tell, the GPL does not contain the text "if you are

licence, you can just put a disclaimer on the box of your product and
that's OK instead".

Sorry, I was tired, and misread that you were making the
'not merely an archive' point as an argument for why the module
was a derived work, which makes little sense.
