This neglects the cognitive load of reading LLM-generated text, which is often overly verbose, awkward, and confusing.
Well that's not my problem, that's yours.
Me explaining to a teacher why i cheated on the test: well did you stop to consider the cognitive load of doing the problems myself and how much easier it was to cheat?
Not even remotely the same situation.

Tell me one for that specifically, or gtfo.
Imagine the horror of practicing a skill in order to get better at it!
imagine the horror when after practicing the skill diligently for years this cognitive load never reduced beyond 2x ~ 3x that of your native language.
