A) you just described the Open Source dilemma. One I've been dwelling on for some time with little in the way of suggestions.
B) while your narrative is popular, the idea that "Chinese just copy" is rapidly becoming obsolete. I bought a Chinese inverter last year that is cheaper, and has a lot more features than the "established US brand". Equally Roombas have lagged in some areas, despite the R&D investment.
