Cloning features and UI in your own product is not dishonorable. Outcompeting someone who didn’t bake in a moat isn’t doing anything wrong, or Burger King and Wendy’s shouldn’t exist.


Well at least they didn't have their product managers reach out to "start a conversation" like Google and Microsoft's who then blatantly rip off the product later.
