You're wrong because software, as you describe it, includes the "cp" command which creates a perfect copy.

As sibling noted, we’re talking about the impact of a software’s license on use of

I suppose your point would stand if the software were a quine?

The copyright license
of the cp code itself
has no bearing on the copyright of what you produce (well, copy) with cp.
