I discuss this topic briefly in a post I recently made where I call it "decorative knowledge" and try to pinpoint exactly what GPT is doing and fails to do. https://buildingbetterteams.de/profiles/brian-graham

A problem I have with this type of experiment is that it's almost pre-messaging the bot what to say. Simply filtering down to very specific variables leads the outcomes in a very strong way. I suspect this exact approach will not work

I don't think it violates SEMVER. > It MAY also include minor and patch level changes. I ultimately understand this as "I can release a patch as a major if I feel like it"
