bots know little about culture, especially Eastern culture. So I was immediately more trusting when the comment correctly (based on readings I've done on Japan for some years) talks about a concept that wouldn't pop up as much in western society.

On the other hand, hallucinating term you look up and contradict in seconds is peak bot behavior.

Thank you. You hit the nail on the head. A bot can scrape the definition of "Shugyo" from a database. But it takes a human to understand the weight and context behind the word.

I am relieved that my "Cultural Accent" served as the ultimate Captcha. I'm glad my words reached someone who truly understands the culture.
