I agree people can and do create without IP as a motivation, and would continue to in its absence. I believe in a perfect world where everyone’s needs are met, IP may not be necessary at all. I would argue, though, that in the world we live in, the economic incentive IP creates has tangibly contributed to many valuable innovations that benefit humanity. Many people and companies rely on that incentive to be able to fund the work needed to create.
