This sounds like an interesting pre-condition research project then,
as an inversion of 'keeping to the coding standards'.

Take a set of source code repositories and determine whether all
contribution are bellow or above the threshold of similarity.
Something with self-organisation, perhaps, and then comparing number
of clusters with number of actual developers.
