Collusion is if they, well, collude. Copying is not the same thing as colluding.

At some point copying does become tacit collusion, though.
No. Collusion requires agreement among the parties to not compete. Sure they copy but no one is forcing you to stay at the company or accept the new job offer. You walk to somewhere that does meet your ask or negotiate.

It's collision when companies agree to not compete.

At what point does saying I am Spartacus becoming being Spartacus?
