The way "AI" works for now, Copilot never comes with its own ideas, as it is incapable of deductive reasoning. It basically just detects from the context then mixes variations of things it learned. If there is nothing to mix (that is if there is a single source), the risk of spitting verbatim is high. But if there are multiple sources and some mixing and some amount of tiny differences, said differences better not be not too trivial because I don't see why we would suddenly drop Abstraction-Filtration-Comparison approaches...
So their defense of the like "oh it's fine it very rarely emits verbatim things" is bullshit anyway. That's an answer to a wrong question, at least given the answer is in this direction (would there be ton of verbatim recitation, they obviously would not try to wave away the problem like that -- however we can not conclude anything from verbatim output being rare, despite them stating that as if it a quite central and strong argument)
