In order to even say this, you need to have knowledge and understanding about the language. I suspect you are not the intended target of this policy. They are defending their project with a harsh policy, knowing full well there are false negatives. Contributions for FOSS was already in borderline crisis mode before LLMs so it makes sense they’re desperate.

Their bet would be Venn diagram of LLM user overlaps with irresponsible. I think that’s correct, but not because good programmers suddenly become irresponsible when they use LLMs, but rather that an enormous barrage of bad programmers can participate in domains they otherwise wouldn’t even know where to begin.

Just in case, I'm completely fine with the policy as-is. Even more, I'm ok with making no-sense project policies. I have no business to judge how to govern other's projects.
