not a fan of this argument. musicians, artists, all kinds of athletes, all grow by watching observing and learning from others. as if all these open source projects got to where they are without looking at how others did things. i don't think a single function, similar syntax or basic check function is worth arguing about, its not like co-pilot is stealing an entire code base and just plopping it out by reading your mind and knowing what you want. i know developers that have certainly stolen code and implementation details from past employers and that was just fine.
