Yeah me and the Harvard Business Review are wrong about existing precdent because you have very strong feelings.

Guess the SAG strike should end then, since this is all settled!

Fun fact: by your current interpretation, since movie companies own the likeness of characters within movies, they can reuse those characters, and potentially even those actors in some instances (since they can claim they are representative of similar archetypes) forever and the movie stars don't need to get paid. Writers are flat fucked so long as the studios train AI on prior scripts they own.

This is why semantics are important in law.
