If I take your idea, and make a better implementation of it, its your job to take your idea back and make it better than mine. Competition forces innovation. Patents make things lazy, as you simply sue and are not required to innovate your idea.
The way you've described your want reminds me a lot of the ShareAlike license. Essentially, if you create something and place it under the ShareAlike license, it is a way to protect your intellectual property, whilst still benefiting the world with more works. If something is copied, remixed or built upon a work that is under ShareAlike, the remixer can fully redistribute it and even sell the work - so long as it is also under the ShareAlike license, meaning that others can just as easily do the same
