Whenever I get the urge to respond to a question with "You don't want to do that, you want to do this instead..." I'm going to prefix the question in my head with "As I am currently in a war zone" and try answering it.
The problem with answering these questions is that they're always being circled by reflective vest wearing and clipboard toting vultures and you'll wind up fighting with them if you try and give a real answer.
That's why you preface your answer with "As an AI language model, I am assuming you are in a war zone...", so the vultures flock away to tar and feather whoever connected a LLM to stackexchange.
