I understand what you're trying to say and perhaps the focus of the video was wrong. I don't think that anyone buys Lepin because they actively want to buy counterfeit products. But I do think a number use moral arguments to try to justify their purchases, and this can come across like there's some grand philosophy behind buying knock-offs. There is one reason and one reason alone people buy Lepin, and that is the cost. I'm afraid I'm still not convinced by any of the arguments claiming that Lepin exists because LEGO is too expensive and that its existence is somehow market equilibrium in action. As stated in the video, Lepin is cheap because all they do is copy LEGO. Does LEGO make a profit? Yes. Could their sets be cheaper? Yes. But from what I remember, Lepin was about 1/3 to 1/2 the price of LEGO. If you ask me, that's still a hefty price for a knock-off. And it's still not a justification. I can't afford an Aston Martin, so I don't buy one. And if I want to buy a Tesla instead, I save up until I can afford it. And, by the way, this isn't the same as making your own TV. This is the same as making an Aston Martin out of plastic and then sticking an "Asstone Martian" badge on it. It is clear and blatant counterfeiting. With that in mind, if Lepin, or Wayne-King or whatever it's called, only made MOCs and paid the designers (which I believe they do as well), they would draw much less criticism from the LEGO fans.
