What does "shopped around" mean? That's not a common or accepted idiom for code. Or not one I've come across anyway.

Also show me evidence of them "shopping around" code. I'll wait.

Truly, don't bother. I've been watching this conversation play out for 10 years. I've watched it play out with systemd, udev, rust, Wayland.

Just ignore them. Their validation is meaningless. Their ignorance is mostly meaningless, too, for reasons that feel mean to type out.

I'm getting the sense that both sets of parties here have a strong opinion and that this isn't a real discussion because of that.

My task here was to reprimand you for arguing disingenuously, not to teach you language or do homework for you. What an appallingly entitled way to carry yourself.
