I'd say that's pretty much the definition of standard, yeah. And it's why you can't make a profit selling a simple ToDo app. If you expect people to pay for what you build, you have to build something that doesn't have a thousand free clones on the app store.

I politely disagree.

I think you’re conflating software and product.

A product can be a recombination of standard software components and yet be something completely new.
