Why would they do it like this? It makes no real sense to me. At that point it's an entirely different project, with the same functionality.

If you use Bun in production, does this feel like a well managed upstream?

I don't use Bun, I don't care that they are using an LLM (though it is impressive that this actually worked), but the project management aspects of this is just wacky.

Because Anthropic owns Bun and they use it for marketing purposes.
