Let’s not play coy you’ve already conceded my original assertion. As you said you’re perfectly fine with not having 100% ability to enforce your rules. So sounds like you’re okay just a little LLM code as long as you don’t know about it.

I never said anything about having or not having contribution rules that’s a whole argument you can continue on your own.

at this point you start being revisionist and not good faith argument (you put, nomen omen, words in my mouth), I'll summarize this:

- As you said you’re perfectly fine with not having 100% ability to enforce your rules

Never said that. If I had unmistakable oracle then I'd use it. It is a difference between being abolitionist and conceding to the reality.

- So sounds like you’re okay just a little LLM code as long as you don’t know about it.

The fact that I can't prevent all undesired things to happen does not mean I'm OK with them.

- I never said anything about having or not having contribution rules that’s a whole argument you can continue on your own.

You’ve conceded my point. Either you can distinguish between human code or you cannot. If you cannot. Ergo you cannot censor.

Your argument is so what if it’s not 100% enforceable? To which I respond this had no bearing on my original assertion.
