> But you're right that it is anything but a good piece of writing and it is genuinely strange to see people act otherwise.

The prose isn't good. It does read like AI slop.

But it invoked an insight and feeling in me that was novel and poignant and (I think) intended by the author.

That's why I called it lovely writing.

Yes, I get you, I recognised that in my final paragraph. But it would better called writing that "makes a lovely point" rather than "lovely writing" if _the prose isn't good" and it reads like _slop_.
