Here's the thing (wrt chardet).
The "clean room" statement is weakened by putting the new "independent" code in the same git repo/tree. I do think that this does imply a level of dependency/relationship that goes beyond pattern matching strings.
He didn't generate chardet-ng or rename the old version "chardet-legacy" and created a new repo for the claude version. I do think that that as a form of communication/statement matters.
