Indeed.

Maybe my information is already outdated, but I assumed that as of
today it was not possible to 100% vibe-code something that is
maintainable.

And as I understand it, in the case of Linux and projects that use
LLM seriously, humans that use LLMs are still involved in the coding
and so on.

The original issue was to not waste reviewers time.

And I really don't think that the number of users of a package is a good
criteria to exclude packages from Guix.

So my point here that if the goal is "not wasting reviewer's time",
better criteria probably need to be found.

And so my mail was badly written, and it would indeed make more sense
to just forbid "Unmaintainable code" unless there is very good reasons
to keep package that only has "unmaintainable code" regardless of
weather or not an LLM was used to make that code.

Denis.
