I just came here to post that I couldn't read past 'The complexity was real, but distributed'. I can get past these LLM constructions when Claude uses them in chat. They seriously undermine the credibility of comment pieces or guides like this one when I encounter them. I absolutely hate it when I get them in a lengthy response to a simple question to a colleague about why we're going to do something a particular way.

It's sort of a form of corrective antithesis (or "negation-antithesis") I think. A bit like "it's not x, it's why". Really grinds my gears.
