So effectively you're implying that any problem directly adjacent to anything that appears in the training data can't be considered independent and needs to be credited?

But at that point you've circled back around to my original objection. That reasoning isn't limited to user data but applies to literally all the training data which at this point (AFAIK) covers the vast majority of everything ever written.

If we accept that position then what do we make of all the other output? Isn't everything it spits out plagiarized? So then is everyone who uses a frontier model to help them in their research effectively laundering plagiarized work? But then the other researchers involved in this controversy were also using the openai model ...
