Bro, the BTClock looks exactly like the Blockclock from Coinkite, down to the the same form factor for display and similar black bezel with gold lettering. It literally looks like a Temu version of the CK one. Why couldn’t djuri reform/redesign the DIY to look definitively different from the original? More people might like the new design and buy them over the Blockclock. Open source is not an excuse for taking original ideas from someone else and producing it cheaper..I don’t know what the difference is between these two. What did djuri add that can be considered adding to the open source code of this project?

You did not do any research.
The Blockclock does not have open source design or software and is a proprietary commercial product.
The BTClock is an independent alternative that is meant to be able to be built DIY and is fully open source.
The great part is anyone can customize this base design to do anything they want or add custom functionality.
Using a trademark law in a baseless way does not help.
this is bullshit, and absolutely open source is "taking original ideas from someone else and producing cheaper", its the best feature.
