Agree, but "no LLMs" locks out good PRs and contributors too.

I hypothesize it may have roughly the same effect as denying all contributions where the author used intellisense 10y ago.

A substantial portion of people who write good code will be using some sort of LLM assistance, even if it is just something like Cursor Tab (autocomplete).

Yes, you'll also hit all of the spammy PR "contributors", but you'd also do so by prohibiting all contributions by people who have a belly button
