No it doesn't. My mind contains information derived from expressions I've read which I can rearrange into novel expressions. I don't regurgitate protected expressions verbatim. Co-Pilot does.

That's exactly what co-pilot does, ask it to rearrange it if what it comes up with is the same. That's what code plagiarism checkers are for.
