No. We’re acting as if their opinion always mattered just as much as it does now.
While your style is not, can not, and should not be your intellectual property, you should have the right to say “I don’t want you to imitate my exact style” and people should respect that.

So not at all: gotcha.
You do.
“That’s just like your opinion, man.” meme goes here.

So, to recap, your position is this:
Artists do not deserve the respect that would allow them to be creative unfettered. Gotcha.

Artists never needed anyone’s respect to be creative: the suggestion is belittling to artists.
The real point is the article fails to argue well.

I’m suggesting that disrespecting an artists wishes causes them unnecessary struggles which in turn unnecessarily makes it more difficult for them to do their work.

I didn’t say they needed respect to be creative. I said they needed respect to be creative unfettered.
