I agree with all your points EXCEPT a solo artist automatically getting ignored by me or blocked or whatever. If I had assumed that of Beck if he were a new artist today I’d have missed out on one of the greatest artists of modern music. I make sure I understand who they are and how they produce music before I put them in the permanent trash can.
I interpreted the "solo" (in quotes!) as a whitewashed self-description for someone prompting a music AI but I don't think they meant actual solo artists which there are lots of good and impressive ones out there (obviously).
Yes as @pheelicks@lemmy.zip said it was intended as sarcasm quotes. So many of these prompters want to style themselves as artists of some variety.
