Oof, lots of valid points, especially that the value of a contribution is in the decisions it makes. Having an LLM guess those decisions makes the resulting code significantly less valuable.

Hell, one could argue pretty much entirely worthless, because the maintainers could prompt an LLM themselves, if the decisions didn't matter.
