Thank you for confirmation! I understand how maintainers try to “minimize their burden,” but they are imposing impossible and unenforceable conditions, effectively adding to their workload. Instead of focusing on which user used which LLM to correct or generate code, maintainers should focus on the usefulness of the contribution and properly instruct users on how to guide those LLMs to produce correct code. In other words, focus on quality, not on means. -- Jean Louis
