That's your take, and that's OK.*My* take is that Debian should be as universal an OS as possible; and *for me* this means that the lower the friction and mental effort required for packaging and maintaining $interesting_free_software, the better.
Again, *for me*, this means that there is much more joy in me telling my semi-local GLM instance to please package X (and all the random stuff it depends on) than doing the work myself, as that enables me to focus on more interesting problems than a skipped file in d/copyright, or yet another missing comma in d/control.
(The fact that my typing accuracy is not what it used to be doesn't help either.)
Yes, LLMS have problems. Glaringly obvious ones, some of them. But they can also enable people in a way that nothing else does. I for one am *not* willing to completely disregard the latter, or to force my opinion that the problems do (and always will) outweigh the benefits onto every single member of Debian.
