I'm talking about this kinda style...

* <Arrow hitting target emoji> 15 compiled libraries!

* <green tick> Works on my machine

* <red cross> No ARM support.

None of which are at the end of a statement. So, I'm not sure who you're replying to.

Incidentally, I recently reviewed a PR heavily written by Cursor that had statements like this.

    logger.info("<magnifying glass emoji> DEBUG: {actual message")
And then CursorBot reviewed it and flagged the emojis as indicative of "debugging statements not suitable for production".

Which made me laugh, loudly, and only somewhat sadly, Cursor added the emojis, Cursor then flagged them as not appropriate in prod code.

But CursorBot missed the obvious problem with

    logger.info("DEBUG: ...")
