Dosn't copyright protection needs a work to be protected? If it isn't the
documentation,
what else?
How does SSO materialize if not in a kind of document?

Could that mean this:
* The library code is copyrighted and standard meaning
applies;
* The program that "distillates" the API from the code, by
its very operation, defines its result (the API with
appropriate comments) to be fair use of the library code?
That program is originally run by Souracle, and uses the
literary work that is the library as input. That action is
not infringing because done by Souracle; but what kind of an
(legal) animal can the result be? A set of excerpts from
the copyrighted work, to be used for teaching and therefore
fair use? Something else?
