Here is the text from the linked landing page describing the plagiarism checker feature (emphasis mine):
Our free plagiarism check will tell you whether or not your text contains duplicate content. Our Premium plagiarism check highlights passages that require citations and gives you the resources you need to properly credit your sources.
This makes it quite clear that is an authoring tool, not policing tool. Plagiarism masking is not addressed by design. It's a trivial thing to code if there was a need but the company made a decision to stay out of plagiarism enforcement (at least for now).

> "Who Benefits from Grammarly’s Plagiarism Checker? Whether you’re a student writing an essay, a teacher grading papers, or a writer working on original content for the web, a plagiarism scan will not only save you time, but also help you avoid writing mistakes." ( emphasis mine)
Grammarly Sales has always sold it to academic institutions and teachers, it is must be news to them it is not meant for policing.
The four customers highlighted (Arizona State University, University of Phoenix, California State University, Ashford University ) on the page are all education institutions who most certainly use it for policing.
Also it is product and not feature because it is sold standalone and does not depend on license to their more well known grammar checking product to work.

In any case, Grammarly does not include a number of plagiarism policy enforcement features intentionally and by design, due to its focus on supporting authors rather than policing. Any insinuation of otherwise is false.
Please stop pretending to know more about the plans and intentions of a company than the company itself and posting falsehoods.
