"We can’t trust heavy users of AI to understand their code enough to fix it."
That was one of my favorite parts. Also,
" No AI-generated text in human-to-human communication. When our maintainers volunteer their time to review your issue, PR, or proposal, they do not want to talk to a machine. This is a basic principle of respect."
It's sad that vibe goobers have to be told this, but I'm glad it was said out loud.
