US Supreme Court rules for Google over Oracle

US Supreme Court rules for Google over Oracle

Reading the Syllabus of the ruling, the most convincing argument to me seems to be this:

Google copied approximately 11,500 lines of declaring code from the API, which amounts to virtually all the declaring code needed to call up hundreds of different tasks. [...] As part of an interface, the copied lines of code are inextricably bound to other lines of code that are accessed by programmers. Google copied these lines not because of their creativity or beauty but because they would allow programmers to bring their skills to a new smartphone computing environment.
