I think this framing is wrong. we have to learn to accept that it's not stealing. It's a new world where it's fair use and we don't know how to deal with it.
If we accept this then we can do something about it. Without it no one will heed us.
I understand your point, but at some point someone needs to think about morality.
If you or I copied and reimplemented nextjs in a better way, it doesn't feel as wrong. But when a large company does that and then brag about it, it's in poor taste.
Especially pointing out one developer and 1000 usd of tokens replacing the efforts of hundreds of talented developers. There's people on the other side of the screen.

The thing is feeling bad or complaining about this does nothing. What else then? Acceptance?
