Review Comment:
   ```suggestion
   Human-generated mistakes tend to be easier to spot and reason about, and
   code review is intended to be a collaborative learning experience that
   benefits both submitter and reviewer. When a PR appears to have been
   generated without much engagement from the submitter, reviewers with access
   to AI tools could more efficiently generate the code directly.
