It's not a really a bait, dang. Unless going against the chorus is considered bait. Couple of one liners from today is hardly evidence of malicious flamebait.

But I shall read the sacrad guidelines again, it's been a while.

If you have a substantive contrarian point to make, and you make it thoughtfully, that can be a good HN comment. But just throwing flamboyant pejoratives on top of an internet cliché is not that.

The first two of the other comments I liked to were just personal cheap shots—obviously not ok on HN.

I might have wrong about https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=50158417 though; it sounded like personal snark when I read it originally ("Do you even LLM at that point?") but perhaps you didn't mean that bit personally. The rest of that comment was fine.
