Yeah, attribution for inspiration is useful.
My high school Physics classes had an unofficial "Cult of James Burke" and I've gone through a non trivial amount of effort and expense to purchase The Day the Universe Changed and Connections (even the later seasons which IMHO were not as good) on DVD (or VHS when that was not possible).
I hadn't really thought of that potential association until today. But, seems kind of glaring now, maybe?
Then again, I'm world weary of too many with too much wealth and influence ignoring the shoulders upon which they stand.
In this short retrospective on BASIC:

They use the phrase "B.G. Before Gates".
Micro$oft profited, from its inception, off of others' inventions which were shared freely within academia.
A lot of other companies and unethical individuals have lamentably, aped that example.
We all lose as a result.
Those who profit, just haven't yet figured out how badly their karma is impacted I guess?
