Then it becomes a scenario where a AAA studio takes an indie under it's wing, only to taske whatever that indie makes from it, with the indie studio having zero say in anything, only to "man up". 

I'm afraid I don't understand what you mean. Game elements being copied is happening all the time, it's only natural to some extent. How is a big studio copying a game mode worse than when an indy dev does it?

Yes, it happens, but not in ways that it's a direct clone of everything from top to bottom. The only difference here is that FN has it's crafting, it's own default mechanic sprinkled on top.

I like how we try to put everyone in the same boat, yet we still have bigger studios vs smaller ones, they aren't equals and never will be.
