Wannabee commercial programmers using Crafty source as a means of getting going. Either by pirating the source and trying to hide it in their programs, or by getting an understanding that they would otherwise have had to struggle for? Existing programmers ripping off program coding ideas such as parallel? It is noteworthy that any wannabee commercial makes a major song and dance about his program beating Crafty in the few weeks before it is due for release. Bella
