Why would anybody who rejects them on moral grounds pick them up later? It isn't a discussion of lateness, it's a discussion of opting out.

Asking it to do something isn't exactly complicated. At the very least, it's way easier than actually coding so why would you expect people to struggle with writing? There's no skill required in using LLMs, that's kinda the point.
The point is that people who reject them on moral grounds won't be using them, irrespective of whether they are easy to use.
Someone might feel different about a (future) community owned and managed LLM than one controlled by Altman, Musk, and similar. It would be nice to feel like we're building something together instead of funding the oligarchy and accelerating the collapse of civilization.
