It does to the person who asked the question.

Whether their concerns are driven by curiosity, ethics, philosophy, or something else entirely is really immaterial to the question itself.

Not necessarily. Would you respond the same if the previous person said, "Was this built using an IDE" or "What qualifications do you have to write this software"?

Shit code can be written with AI. Good code can also be written with AI. The question was only really asked to confirm biases.

As someone who has worked in projects with hundreds of seemingly trivial dependencies which still manage to produce a steady stream of security notices, "What qualifications do you have to write this software" seems like an entirely reasonable, far too seldom asked question to me.
Sure, but that seems like quite a high gatekeeping bar for a test suite.
What test suite?
