>unique but simple paid closed source plugin has a clause in its license saying you can't "reverse engineer or create derivate works it and create your own version". Sounds kind of fishy and ridiculous.
>buy a license
>it becomes obvious what the plugin is doing and how to make an improved custom version after a couple of days.
...what's the next move, knowing that the company has my real name?

reverse engineer it, upgrade it, change all naming conventions and publish it under another name

understanding the legal definition of what reverse engineering means in your country would be a good start.
IANAL but it AFAIK doesn't mean that you can't create an improved version from scratch in a couple of days if you do what is legally permitted.
Scratch that last part, rather what can be constructed as an argument against you in an juristic conflict before a court of law.
Buying a product that is competing with your idea can be considered market research. Remember, they have the burden of proof.

Just post your version with a casual "look what I found" instead of claiming you made it

I'm going to be super and completely honest with you...Anyone who seriously uses the acronym IANAL is a huge massive faggot that can never be taken seriously. Even if you do make a point, it's immediately lost because of your faggot reddit acronyms. You're not saving time by typing that out. You just look like a major fucking tool.

So you complain about me using acronyms that clearly communicate information that can be understood, but you are unwilling to process this information because of the way I presented them to you?
How ironic, you call me a huge massive faggot and major fucking tool, while being such an retarded emotional cunt with sand in her vagina.
I'm going to be super and completely honest with you...IDGAF about what you think about me and how I look to you. AFAIC you can dive from a bridge, suck on a chainsaw/shotgun or fuck your mom in the ass, besides me typing this text right now, your existence has no effect on mine and never will.

Why publish? Just make a version for yourself.

If you're reimplementing the same thing from scratch, your only concern would be them patenting the algorithm/method itself (which is possible if you're dealing with a dickhead company like Apple). Otherwise go for it, and get a lawyer if you can afford one.
