In the age of agents, why on earth would you rewrite something from Typescript to Python?

Likely trying to escape from the DMCA or proving a point.

The developer calls it a clean room implementation. He might be in for a surprise.

Yah this is as about as dirty room as it can get

The irony of an IP scraper on an absolutely breathtaking, epic scale getting its secret sauce "scraped" - because the whole app is vibe coded (and the vibe coders appear to be oblivious to things like code obfuscation cuz move fast!)...

And so now the copy cats can ofc claim this is totally not a copy at all, it's actually Opus. No license violation, no siree!

It's fucking hilarious is what it is, it's just too much.
