I'm not surprised this got attention. As you say, everyone though of it, but that also means many many people are waiting for it.
There is a huge group of people who are interested in using Copilot, but are not allowed (or don't want) to share their code with a 3rd party service.
AFAIK there is Fauxpilot and now there is this second project. Of course it got attention based on the promise/idea alone, because many people are curious whether it could be useful for them.
