Can’t speak for others, but my work performance is evaluated against a KPI specifically on LLM usage.

My read was that waist size is the issue because the manufacturers have made it the issue. The idea you can derive the other dimensions as a function of waist size is clearly an assumption that has a limited range of validity, and there hasn’t been a broader effort to come up with something better.

It honestly sucks that some interesting structures are basically flags against the writer now. I personally love the rule of three, the Oxford comma, the semicolon to hang a dependent clause, and yes, even the now fucking pervasive em-dash. It’s just one more thing that LLMs have ruined for us.
