Notion flagged my template for looking too close to their official one

Built a template based pretty closely on one of Notion's own official templates, just with some tweaks. Got a notice about it. Anyone know what the actual line is here? Can I use their layout as inspiration or does it need to be completely from scratch?

Notion doesn't allow reselling copies of their own official templates, even lightly modified ones. You can build something that solves a similar problem, but the structure needs to be genuinely your own, not a tweaked version of theirs.

Had a near miss with this too. Ended up rebuilding mine from scratch instead of starting from their template, took longer but no issues since.
