It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:

Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.

Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.

Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

In my head I'm thinking "They probably had 10 different people count the number of fingers on each hand, and nobody looked at the bike." But the more I look it's pretty clear that AI also did the editorial review. 'cuz nobody noticed her conjoined mono-finger or her levitating right foot. Not to mention all the shit wrong with the bike, like the extra rear brake, pedals only on the right, dislocated left brake lever, wrong spoke and spoke nipple spacing, and probably a dozen other things I'm not seeing.
