everybody who's playing poker is gambling, skilled or not.

Nearly all complex technical projects are owned by one super smart person (Ex: linux).

strange example, considering that the super-smart owner is purely a delegator at this point, and there are thousands of contributors.

What am I missing? What about this law (the real one that actually exists, not your hypothetical) is challenging to be in compliance with?

Coming from a background as a professional music performer and educator (now a software engineer), seeing highly-upvoted comments like this one that are so confident and yet so completely wrong is a great reminder that you should always take what you read in an internet comment section with a grain of salt, no matter how many people are nodding virtually in agreement.

Of course, there's nothing wrong with anybody learning to play piano entirely by ear and never picking up a music score. If that brings you enjoyment, that's truly fantastic, and I mean that sincerely. But for the vast majority of pianists, being unable to read sheet music will cut you off from many genres of music entirely, make in-person instruction mostly impossible, render all written pedagogical resources inaccessible to you, and enormously limit your ability to play in ensembles. Even jazz pianists who improvise and play by ear for all of their meaningful playing can read music; in fact you'd probably find that most of the really good ones are incredible sight-readers.

These things are about a different as learning to program and learning to type in a program from a magazine.

Shipping source maps allows for better error-reporting instrumentation, and can also be a great help if you need to debug an issue you're not able to reproduce in a local or staging environment.
