What do you think of folks who secretly outsource their programming work? It certainly gives them a leg up in the market.

I don't think it does. The people who are doing that are probably not that good to begin with. The people they outsource to are not that good. And then you have to communicate requirements to them, and manage them. I wouldn't be more productive doing that unless I had a whole team behind me, and then I'd be a manager, not a programmer anymore.

I think I'm deliberately ignoring the tortured argument you're trying to make that copliot is similarly unethical - which is just ridiculous. It deserves to be ignored.
