I'm not disagreeing about the slop, which is a monumental waste of everybody's time, for exactly the reasons discussed - which is why I quite specifically did not quibble about that aspect. I thought it would be clear that I was obviously referring to the last paragraph only, that being that part that contains as it does one quite specific reference to These Days, and some minor froth about downvotes. But perhaps not.
I don't intentionally use LLMs for anything, but perhaps I should have run my post through one to optimise for clarity.

Possibly not. But, too late: my delete rights have expired. We're stuck with my comment forever now. May this be a lesson to everybody involved.
