Author here! This post was human written, LLM proofread, and edited a couple times as folks pointed out broken links and minor errors when it was posted to r/rust a few days ago. As someone mentioned lower in the thread, there's a form of what is sometimes called Bay Area Standard that both very online humans and LLMs have absorbed. I find it FASCINATING that we're in an era where we have to prove our humanity, and the downstream behaviours of things like killing em-dash use in response are interesting to watch in real time. I've made the same mistake, so it's honestly difficult to tell!
