I ask because I recently got corrected on the difference between "SCOTUS declined to hear the case, so a lower court's decision stands" and "it is set as official national legal precedent", and don't want to continue to make a similar mistake.

(Asking in order to be corrected)

My understanding is that the current precedent and the position of the US Copyright Office is that human authorship must be there for a work to by copyrighted.

Wouldn't that be an endpoint for looking for what the appropriate usage rights (at least in the US), e.g. that it's free to use?

Or is this one of those things where there's a very specific definition of FOSS/OSS that I'm blurring/ignorant of?
