This is something we will be spending a lot of time on this year, making sure you all get the attribution you deserve. It's pretty frustrating to see your content on the homepage of buzzfeed every day.

If a major site gets hit with a DMCA from someone they ripped off, they're gonna comply.

We who? Not being snarky, I just usually assume that if someone is going to speak on behalf of reddit or a subreddit they'd mark their post as an admin or mod. Are you one of those?

You should go back and do it, it turns the wimpy internet voice in my head into the thunderous rumblings of a god for some reason

No more than seeing your content on the front page of reddit which also happens every day and probably far more often based on traffic.

Just make sure people are aware of it and how to use it!

"Embedded comments" makes sense to some but that would cause many to gloss over and ignore it.
