Reply to "Duplication of map by another measurer"

This situation is similar to the one where one race uses another's certified course. Once the courses are listed they become public.
It is very poor form for a measurer to take another measurer's map and use it for certification.
Question: If the original map hadn't been one the Certifier produced would this be an issue? Probably not.
Another question: Is this course different from last year's race?
I am not confident that refusing to certify the course is the best action. It appears the certifier is biased because he has time and effort in the original map. Understandably the measure is upset.
It might be best to let the measurer know this not appropriate and won't be acceptable in the future.
Where is the victim in this scenario? The original measurer was paid for his work. Refusing to accept a map because the measurer cut and altered an existing map seems a bit extreme. Could this lead to refusing maps cut from any number of map programs?
