Hi Campbell,

Fair cop, and my sincere apologies to you and the list. I used an LLM
to help clean up and polish my English/phrasing for the responses, but
I see how that was disrespectful to everyone's time here.

For what it's worth, the actual script and its logic are 100% my own
hand-written work, but I'll keep the communication strictly human from
now on.

Lesson learned. Sorry for the noise.

Best regards,
cmhacks
