The only thing that was in Buchwald's treatment was the idea of African royalty coming over to America, and also him spending some time in a New York ghetto. That's not a "story". Even the WGA only considers a story to be a detailed series of beats, otherwise so many producers would claim "story" credit for tiny ideas. (Also, the idea of him ending up as the "emperor of the ghetto" is just plain offensive. African royalty deserves to live in the ghetto and is HAPPY about it? No wonder it never went anywhere.)

There's a reference to "watershed" in this section which led me to this link http://ubrc.gabelliconnect.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/02/2018-Gabelli-UBRC-Presentation-Abstracts.pdf

That documents has a series of abstracts which includes one that uses the term "watershed" and has similar content to this article, under the heading "The Effects of Buchwald v. Paramount on Hollywood Accounting Thirty Years Later" William Cheng. It could be the source, otherwise there's nothing to support it. Can't find the article. Citing an abstract seems improper.
