Effectively nobody considering buying into the IPO cares about Anthropic's source control system. They could be passing around floppy disks and so long as they were still shipping nobody would care.

That’s not surprising to me - they designed and built it using their LLMs, of course it’s duplicating prior work. That’s essentially the core of what LLMs do, after all.

Mononoke and Sapling are open source systems. Why shouldn't new software take inspiration from how they are designed?
I see correlation instead. You IPO when you grow like crazy. You build something like scion when you grow like crazy.
