Your reply is based on a 100% bad-faith, intellectually dishonest interpretation of the comment to which you’re replying. You know that. Nobody claimed that LLM code should be outright accepted. Also, nobody claimed that open source maintainers have the right to accept or decline based on whichever criteria they choose. To always come back to this point is so…American. It’s a cop-out. It’s a thought-terminating cliche. If you aren’t interested in discussing the merits of the decision, don’t bother joining the conversation. The world doesn’t need you to explain what consent is.

Most of all, I’m sick of the patronising “don’t forget that you can fork the project!” What’s the point of saying this? We all know. Nobody needs to be reminded. Nobody isn’t aware. You aren’t being clever. You aren’t adding anything to the conversation. You’re being snarky.

> Nobody claimed that LLM code should be outright accepted

Not directly, but that's the implication.

I just did not pretend that was not the implication.

> always come back to this point is so…American

I am not American.

To be frank, this was the most insulting thing someone ever told me online. Congratulations. I feel insulted. You win this one.

> If you aren’t interested in discussing the merits of the decision, don’t bother joining the conversation.

I will join whatever conversation I want, and to my desires I adressed the merits of the discussion perfectly.

You are not the judge here, your opinion is as meaningless as mine.

> Most of all, I’m sick of the patronising “don’t forget that you can fork the project!” What’s the point of saying this?

That sounds like a "you" problem. You will be sick of it until the end of time, because that's the final right answer to any complaints of open source project governance.

> You aren’t adding anything to the conversation. You’re being snarky.

I disagree. In fact, I contributed more than you. I adressed arguments. You went on a whinging session about me.
