The first volumes were much criticized because, although they were called "Children's Tales", they were not regarded as suitable for children, both for the scholarly information included and the subject matter.[1] Many changes through the editions ? such as turning the wicked mother of the first edition in Snow White and Hansel and Gretel to a stepmother, were probably made with an eye to such suitability.

even if you were a complete moron who never bothered to look at the "scholarly information included" which clearly defined the multiple varients of the story that were merged into the single "snow white" story
the story of change from mother to step mother would have been enough to make it a non public domain derivation.
since disney's snow white didn't make her the mother as the original "traditional" fairy tale had stated but instead used the Grimm "stepmother" version your entire arguement is proven to be total and utter bullshit.
Disney didn't use the "oral" snow white they used the grimm fairy tale version.
