Even if they're never sued, companies will do internal OSS scans to limit their risks which would catch this. The result would be (at minimum) a talking to for the dev who committed it, and developer time spent doing a clean room re-write.

That's just not likely in any real use of copilot since it is typically completing single lines, using the variables and patterns which occur in the file that is being edited.

Anybody who had actually used it for work would know that these contrived examples are irrelevant.
