if everyone aheard to this rule then nobody would do anything ever. I'd say
about 90% of musicians out there are living in the shadows of others, that's
the way it always will be.. not everybody can be innovative like you'd like
them to be, that's a totally idealistic way of seeing things, and although
maybe it might be nice, theoretically, it's not realistic. Just let people do
what they want, there will always be innovators.
