I've seen projects like these use the term "clean room" extremely liberally. Possibly just to throw up a shield ("it's clean room so you can't take it down!"). I think the same was even claimed for the re3 (GTA III decompilation) project, which has been since taken down.

That's someone who re-posted their own fork – the original repo <https://github.com/GTAmodding/re3> was taken down in a DMCA action. The only commits they've added are to change the README links to point to their repository.
