You have no proof that Samsung had any Apple's design knowledge of the iPhone.
According to Forestall, his team had iron clad secrecy regarding the matter.
Hence, Samsung would not have any knowledge of the design.
Therefore, your argument goes out that window, yes the one on your left.
Really?
No one could ever possibly have any rumors of what an Apple product would look like. It's just impossible to comprehend that sites like MacRumors or AppleInsider or any of 100 other rumors sites would ever discuss an unreleased Apple product. /s
In reality, Apple's product design was fairly well described (and even displayed) in the media for many months before the iPhone or iPad were released.
But it really doesn't matter. While Samsung was working on the Tab before the iPad was released, as soon as the iPad came out they scrapped all that work and modified the product so that it looked exactly like an iPad - so closely that their attorneys couldn't tell the difference and the public is easily confused by Samsung's own evidence.

That (ruling) isn't yet a certainty, and it's (wording) a blatant lie in the first place.
This is surely there now haunting Koh.
