First, you can't even compare the code if you don't have access to it, you don't have access to google's or facebook's code.
Second who can even legally challenge entities with pockets as deep as the ocean.
Third courts will probably classify AI generated code based of non-permissive licenses as fair use, so It's a lost cause anyway.
Nothing is set. Until there's a challenge in court, all you stated as certainties are just conjectures.
Not being able to compare some proprietary is besides my point. Not all code is or remains hidden. I specifically wrote "if you can match" to remain neutral on that aspect.
