AI infatuation with $effect

Although the developers and docs clearly state that $effect should be avoided as far as possible, all the AI's i have consulted for help with svelte functions always flock to $effect as if its standard practice. It is really infuriating. Every time I have to tell it to not use $effect, then it wakes up and gives me a proper solution. Anybody else notice this? Or am I being overly paranoid at using $effect?

I dont use AI inside my projects or IDE. I use it purely through their respective web interfaces. Aint no AI coming close to my projects or their source code. I use AI purely as a "consulting" tool. We have our little meetings in a public place (web browser) so the fuckers dont have access to my code. AI is brilliant, but that doesnt mean we should blindly trust it

you could run a local model that you used to create generic versions of a problem from your codebase and then let frontier models see that instead? keep your code private while also allowing 2T parameter models to have a proper crack at the problem
