By the look of their ships they have done a lot of copying.

Copying is a stalwart of the manufacturing industry, which is always one step ahead of the patent laws it seems to me.

Somebody comes up with a good idea, and every body else produces something 'similar' but 'different' enough to avoid copyright. Happens right across the board.

You can patent a specific product, but to patent an idea ? .... never going to happen.

Plagiarize
Let no one else's work evade your eyes
Remember why the good Lord made your eyes
So don't shade your eyes
But plagiarize, plagiarize, plagiarize
Only be sure always to call it please "research"

Tom Lehrer

Good advice.
