I feel every human just regurgitates words too

I know it FEELS like that's true sometimes, particularly in the corporate world, but it actually just isn't how human beings work at all.

Even when people are borrowing, copying, and stealing, which is the exception, mind you, they are also carefully threading the material they are re-using into whatever it is they are trying to do, say, or make in a way that is extremely non-trivial.
