I doubt that. The expressivity between languages differs a lot and
there's no standard definition for LOC count. For example some 1000
LOC program written in ancient Basic might easily fit inside the limit
of 10 LOC when written in a modern high level language.
Keep in mind we are talking about lawyers; logic has nothing to do with it.
Luckily I
write proprietary closed source applications and obfuscate the code
with a customized gcc backend so I don't need to care about copyright
issues even when stealing copyrighted code.
For shame, for shame.
