Why does it need to be exactly the same? You have shifted the goalposts to absurdity.

Because the parent comment says "But we can" in response to the claim that AI can't generate "exact copies." Generating exact copies would be a lot more legally notable than outputs that are only similar or partially copied. As far as I know exact copies haven't happened and was legitimately asking for cases where it has.
