Nothing has value without demand, obviously. Anyone could fork any network, demand and network effect won't magically appear.

if you could retroactively claim your coins because you held any of the original version, then coins were made without the usual "hashwork" associated with the minting of new coins

I can agree there, but i would say that in the instance of a split in which the supply is doubled, and both forks have value and some network effect, that monies appeared suddenly.
