I'm almost positive now the filter does not apply to a themed site using the same navigation on each page. I've found, at least for my site, the filter was trigged when someone copied part of a page of mine in answer to a question on a forum.

In order to keep my "original content" I could take a snapshot of the page, crop the stolen content, turn it into a photo, and then put it back up while the offending site is using my text.

I haven't done it yet, I want to give G the chance to fix the problem, but I can't stand to suffer forever because of this major problem in the algo. It should surely be easy to compare dates of origin before imposing a penalty.
