I don't care that he repurposed his own composition from a film score he wrote to a movie no one cares about to get the music for the title song. Not at all.

But what else did he steal from his other shows? Also he his hardly the only successful composer to write a big musical that recycles its own music over and over with new lyrics on it, most of the biggest hit shows of the 80s do that.

So other than the title song's music, what of the 9 songs I listed are guilty of this? I hate how he recycles those songs over and over in the score, but writing 9, or even 6 (assuming a couple of those 9 are built on the same melody and I haven't realized) is pretty good when they are that good.
