Does using someone else's face settings violate the terms of the copyright assignment?

Does using someone else's face settings violate the terms of the copyright assignment?

[Brian Leung]

In 
https://github.com/joaotavora/eglot/discussions/858#discussioncomment-2288255, 
a user noticed that lsp-mode used as a face default a much nicer 
setting than what currently exists in eglot. Given that lsp-mode 
is not part of ELPA, can we steal its setting and use it in eglot?

AFAIK this is much too trivial to be copyright-worthy, so there's no
problem following their example.
