I’m not sure what the point is. That the argument of copying Disney movies is not a good analogy, or that courts will find plagiarism in software copyright cases involving Copilot?

The point is that Copilot is effectively doing the Disney movie thing, just with code, and yet this article argues this is all fine. As it is, the article turns Copilot into an universal copyright laundering machine.
