I certainly didn't mean to imply this was a legal opinion. The point was
that current copyright laws are unreasonable and regressive in the light
of modern technology. I just think changes are needed.

In my opinion (certainly not a legal one) copying to replace or protect

Arguing from analogy is never realistic and would seldom, I imagine,
impress a court. Not even the various rights in the copyright bundle
are handled the same.
