   @hrefna Entirely true, but on top of that, the bulk of any of these projects' success is reputation/adoption/entrenchment. It's not hard to write equivalent code, even if you can't get a slop extruder to copyright-launder somebody else's code. The hard part is getting anyone to notice, care, or trust you. And that's much harder if your code is slop.

     Even if I created something as secure and as well built as 1Password, there's no way people should trust me with something that important all on my own.
