This is something you can only get with labor rights, not copyright and certainly not property rights. If we limit ourselves to property rights, the only question we need to ask is "Who owns that writers' room?" And since the answer is "the studio" then whatever the studio says goes.

It's precisely because labor rights get workers benefits at their bosses' expense that copyright cannot that we have been subjected to generations of pro-copyright messaging, told that we aren't workers at all - we're small businesses, LLCs with MFAs! Creative workers have been taken for a ride. We've been told that we're not workers, so we shouldn't advocate for labor rights. 41/
