I thought so. I don't think I've ever seen a knockoff do better than the original. If the original of something sucks, the knockoff is going to suck. If the original is genius, the best a knockoff can achieve is near genius (as a rule, genius can't be replicated). If the original is simply mediocre, the best a knockoff can achieve is mediocre. Knockoffs just don't seem worth the time to me.
