One thing I've noticed in this discussion is that people who say
"innovation is good" aren't making a distinction between useful
innovation and useless innovation.  For example, when I wrote the
wordprocessor "Galahad" (which is in use by thousands and thousands of
people), I didn't know about troff.  So, I invented my own command
set, using single letter commands preceded by a dot.  This is
innovation!  Is it useful?  Of course not.  But if L&F copyrights
existed at the time, I would have been required by law to "innovate",
instead of copying troff's command set.

We won the cold war.  The Russians spent trillions defending their stuff,
then they found that they didn't have any stuff.  Will we avoid the same trap?
