    The argument for the FSF assignment policy is that it makes the
    license much easier to enforce.

Yes, but...

      Ie, it is the position of the FSF
    that failing to collect assignments creates "situations where [the
    GPL] cannot be taken seriously and/or enforced."

that is putting it too strongly.  This does not make it impossible, but
it makes things harder in some ways.
