I don't see why Paul doesn't release it on his own considering it was never meant to be a Beatles' release. That was the explanation George gave when rejecting the Carnival of Light for the Beatles Anthology.
I think that you are mistaking George's "explanation" for the conflict that surrounded the inclusion of Paul's 'Come And Get It', which was clearly a Paul McCartney song/demo which none of the others were involved in. It's ironic though because George's 'All Things Must Pass' demo that was included on 'Anthology 3' was also "never meant to be a Beatles' release" ...
