Copyright is the legal method to limit redistribution of easily copied material, not as if there's anything else people could appeal to.

I ain't a fan of copyright but make it last 10 years instead of X + infinity and maybe it's not so bad. I can't argue against copyright fully as I think copyleft is essential for software.

But those aren't the options on the table right now. The options are "nullify copyright" or "keep infinite copyright"

I activate false dichotomy and flip the table.
