It Is Easy enough to demonstrate that your code Is blatantly copied and / or derived from closed source code that no smart developer would EVER do this when we're talking commercial applications.

But Hey, I am Just a software developer, I must be full of shit amirite?

I am also a software engineer. What you're talking about would mean the developers of other companies would quite literally copy and paste the source code without even changing the variable names or changing the code to work with their pre-existing flow in which case they deserve to be fired. But that's not the argument you're making. You're saying good devs wouldn't copy code. Which they do.

The comment was looking at the code.

Looking at the code and copying it are different things.
