As a professor, my most controversial position was that I didn't care at all about plagiarism. a) they at least found some material b) it was probably better written than most of what I received c) privileging "originality" is a very bougie and culturally insensitive position

Very very rarely is there some actual intent of any kind when it comes to this stuff, more often just confusion

Exactly. The concept of accidental plagiarism doesn’t make sense to me. In the student handbook, it’s listed under academic dishonesty. But if it’s an accident, there’s no intent to deceive. Fix the mistake and move on.
