I completely agree and appreciate sincerely that they released this. It's unfortunate, the way the obviously nonsense claims made by the industry at large - "LLMs are AI and can do everything!" - have polluted a lot of devs' ability or willingness to see the tools for what they are, and maybe official acknowledgements like these can help.
It also seems likely to me that the major players know a lot of negative truths about all this stuff, you're probably right about hiring observations. I don't follow any of their marketing really so I have to admit I'm even just assuming that releasing this is out of character.
If I'm being honest, I'm mostly just on the edge of my seat waiting for the hype bubble to burst, lol, and curious about how it'll unfold. Probably just kind of hoping this marks a step toward that.
