Facts can be disputed, analysis can be argued with, but morals are not subject to change based on logic.
I can point out that the "moral rights of authors" idea is a recent fashion, much younger even than copyright itself, which was designed to benefit society. This is true, although it proves nothing.
But neither I nor anyone can convince you that way. Moral decisions are not influenced by logic and arguments. Since you've made up your mind, there would be no point in further debating the matter with you.
