Could use a summary, but an interesting read, and topic.
I’d love to pointers to what I hope are fairly rigorous definitions of similarity and “plot point overlap”—for instance, how many plot points are there in each book, and what percentage of overlap is required, as opposed to just picking 10-50 in a way that may or may not be important. Also, why doesn’t sequence matter?
I’d be curious how much international variation there is as well.
I’m not a general fan of ownership of ideas, but I’m fascinated by the specific measures we use for the compromises that have become embedded in our law and creative economy.
