I got in the habit of using Oxford Commas[0]. Not everyone loves them, and I sometimes need to go back, and uncomma stuff.
I got in the habit, because it is better for technical specifications. It makes it clear, to which word an "and" applies. I think it makes reading prose a bit awkward, though.
I've noticed that LLMs really don't seem to like using commas, in general.
