Personally, if I have an idea about a Bob/Betty robot AU, and then, some time later, I see someone post an imagine or prompt for a Bob/Betty robot AU, and I then go on to write the Bob/Betty robot AU, I wouldn't credit the prompter. Because the Bob/Betty robot AU was my idea. It may not have been exclusively my idea, but it was independently my idea.

However if I haven't ever considered writing a Bob/Betty robot AU before seeing that prompt/imagine, and I decided to write and post that fic, I would definitely credit the prompter, no matter how brief or vague the prompt was, because the fic literally would not exist without them.

I really do not understand why some people are so averse to (and in OP's case, weirdly aggressive about) publicly admitting that their fic was inspired by someone else in the fandom. It's not like it needs an entire gushing paragraph thanking the prompter profusely for deigning to share their genius ideas with the rest of the fandom. One sentence is all it takes and I honestly think it's the gracious thing to do.
