Bad take.

Code is about working with a limited set of tools and making them work for whatever task is in front of you.

Inspiration is from interacting with something and receiving insight.

The best coders meld the two and push the industry forward. If you impose self limitations like this on yourself, then you'll never advance yourself.

This is like saying you read lord of the rings and now can't play DND because the fantasy source material was 'stolen'.
