Also: what, in your interpretation, is the threshold of "large-scale", if beyond a project action applied to every package entering NEW queue?
I think it's clear that the wording of, let me quote it again in full, """The use of generative AI does not alter Debian's established expectations regarding large-scale or automated project actions. Contributors intending to perform actions with broad project impact, such as mass bug filing or patch submission, large-scale code modifications, or other automated changes or requests affecting many packages or contributors, should seek prior discussion and consensus through the appropriate project channels before proceeding. Any such automated process should be overseen by a human who remains accountable for its behavior and output.
""", doesn't talk about all kinds of automation but specifically of mass-reporting, mass-modifying etc. It even says that it's about existing "established expectations" and not being some sort of a new rule.
