Sanm,

I believe it has already been observed by others that this is not a reasonable scenario.

However your response does provide a good example of just how badly the latest model is broken.

Strictly speaking, that's not actually true.  We're talking about

needing to worry about rights.  Rewriting some ideas in your own words
might involve some significant discomfort, but it is doable.
