I also think there’s conflation here between knock-offs that do in fact violate IP laws which isn’t just dodgy but a violation of the law. And knockoffs that take the same general form or appearance of branded goods—with or without the same level of quality.

I agree that this is happenong in these comments. I also think that the people who support IP laws are more likely to find legal yet adjacent actions dodgy -- if you didn't support physical property laws you might find taking an legally abandoned yet possibly lost item dodgy, whereas somebody who doesn't believe in physical property laws is unlikely to have any objection to this.
