What really bothers me about "just fork it" is that it is a viewpoint fundamentally opposed to collaboration

    I think the anti-ai crowd beat me to “opposed to collaboration,” that’s how we got here in the first place.

    If these folks didn’t screech about other people’s choices they wouldn’t hear “just fork it”

    I think the point is we disagree with the premise that AI is inherently collaborative- but that's not the main point, there are very many other complex and morally fraught considerations using AI code in general.
