You should not swear at LLMs, for the same reason you should not shout a slur even if no one is around to witness it: You witness it, and witnessing yourself being toxic updates you in the direction of "I am capable of toxicity" and eventually "I am toxic." In other words, it stains your soul.

I 100% agree with you, which is why I try to be polite to the LLMs. Also, on a practical note, I've never seen an agent session go right-side-up after I crash out; the model seems to perform worse than if I just gently guide it.
