It is non-technical and called plagiarism.

This is not about adding a copyright line to the file, it's about having
a Signed-off-by on your patch. I had the same discussion with Paolo
before, when he supposedly saw-but-not-read my patch. The common
denominator is that every time this happens to me it's address@hidden

You were arguing that because your patch does more than mine you don't
need to carry my copyright and Sob - that's an invalid argument given
that even trivial refactoring changes by copyright holder IBM have been
blocking our relicensing efforts. We chose not to define a threshold.
