That kind of ownership clause is pretty standard for mods, especially when the game officially supports mods. Game studios don't want to run into legal issues if they release some DLC or patch that happens to implement features that another mod included.

It's also a way to essentially say, "hey if we release paid dlc, you can't call it a mod and release it for free".
