The credibility cost to the reputations of Rowling & King would be prohibitive, and the popular backlash against "stolen ideas" (if not legally enforcable) would drive great attention to the source authors.
Here’s another IP take to ponder.
Are we cool with Stephen King publishing the Bitcoin Standard and J.K. Rowling publishing Broken Money with zero attribution or compensation to Ammous and Alden?
Maybe those authors make the work more accessible to the masses and are simply better writers.
