Perhaps he's thinking that if he gets prosecuted for commercial infringement, he can then sue everyone else who's commercially infringed upon his infringement?
With CC-NC, he at least benefits from free promotion and reproduction. He will no doubt also turn a blind eye to commercial exploitation given it can only help him, and would damage his reputation to start getting petulantly litigious.
A sort of 'severally assured destruction' device. Yes, very sad. ;-)
If I get sued, you get sued - let's make hay while the sun shines.
