Is there a name for the phenomenon where new automation is disparaged by comparing it to the best human outputs, rather than considering what the average human output looks like and asking if it's a net improvement on that? Like, in this case, I would guess that the vast majority of commit messages are something like "foo", "fixed", "argh", "stupid CI thing try 10", etc. Pretty sure GPT can improve on those.
