I fully support both of their viewpoints.

You don’t want to artificially limit kernel contributions as a whole, but on the other hand, most of the areas in the kernel are better off without the additional work of maintaining slop at volume.

Yea, that's partly why I went with "... kinda'"

There is only one way current "AI" contributions go right now, and that's increasing volume while decreasing quality... which means anyone who is OK with it either isn't paying attention or is a fucking idiot.
