Google makes money aggregating other people's content. What happens when people aggregate Google's content? What's fair?

Google are objecting to Bing seemingly passing off Google results as Bing's own (and not including their ads, no doubt).
It's clearly legitimate for Bing to index a Google results page if it follows a link to it (assuming absence of robots.txt etc) and visa versa.
Does it matter that Bing obtained the Google results via a search from a human not affiliated with Bing?
Does it matter that Google blocks crawlers from accessing its search results, using robots.txt?
Does it matter that Google's result pages don't include the noindex instruction?
Tbh, if I was Google I'd mark my results as noindex and see whether Bing respected that.
You say Google adds value. Other's don't think so.
Why can't I add value to Google's content and present it in my own way?
Well now people are adding value to Google's products and presenting them in a new way. This opens up a can of worms for Google.
