      The least they could do is say that they burned a copy/blank or ripped the original instead of mixing it up and saying that the original was burned. It makes it sound like they were writing to the original.

      It’s the difference between “I borrowed some money” and “I loaned someone money”. They mean different things, including people occasionally creating awful sentences like “I borrowed him some money” (shudder).

      No, but the verbage is still incorrect for what they were doing. The correct way wouldn’t be that much more words, just different words.
