You're so self-righteous, you're plowing through stuff without reading what you're responding to. This isn't what you said before, and even your clarification makes no sense in context.

It doesn't work, anyway. If you can't build the shelf yourself, what compels the carpenter to make it to your specifications? Even if you paid him? Nothing.

The trouble is, you insist on framing this in terms of the carpenter's rights. It's an impoverished view. No one else is looking at it that way, no one is disputing his rights.

No need for insults.

Violating a contract has penalties. Yes he can ignore it and then give your money back with the potential of being required to give extra money back because of the contract violation.

The trouble is, you insist on framing this in terms of the carpenter's rights.

It wasn't my analogy. I'm working with what you gave me.

disputing his rights.

Demanding he work for free is disputing his rights.

Demanding he work for free

You don't want him taking shortcuts with AI. He would need to spend more time working on rsync to make you happy.
