I don’t understand why YC should object to fund a company that executed an idea that others also execute. Good ideas are a dime a dozen. What matters is the execution. If you execute well, your company will thrive. If everyone is doing it, maybe not.

Because they applied to YC with that idea. That opens a very large can of worms.

I think it opens a very small can of worms. It is uncontroversial that founders and execution count more than ideas and originality in a VC setting. This is perhaps cynical, but welcome to the competition.
