I believe I would be able to annotate or alter the pdf files and re-publish them once I respect the license, however I'm wondering if this would be considered bad form? I assume there's a reason somebody else has not done this to date?

I think you can update and re-publish the example code and don't break the original comment lines. 
At least I think this.
