Sometimes there are rare exceptions where things have to be done from scratch which was the case for some 1970s era Atari games in which actual source code was used from actual paper printouts. The Atari source code that was on paper printouts was compiled to create artificial roms in order to create some of the Atari games. This is what Mariusz Wojcieszek did several years earlier with cocktail table version of Atari Dominos and another Atari game iirc. Had there already been an existing rom set, dumped from actual pcb of an actual 4 player cocktail table Atari Dominos before Mariusz made a rom set from scratch using actual Atari source code, then Mariusz work would likely be treated as a clone set.
