Another reason for the NDA is so that all the code belongs to jolt
These are some of the reasons why I thought my idea would be logical.

If it starts from scratch then it isn't existing Jolt code, so there is nothing to access there. If the coders were seperate from PA Team then they wouldn't get game access or server access. If such a project required all contributors to assign copyright to Jolt then they'd still own the code, you don't need an NDA to transfer copyright.
