> OTOH why bother to polish the PR if it won't get accepted anyway?

As the Zig maintainer so patiently explained, no amount of "polish" can fix the PR because it is misaligned to the correctness that they require.

IOW, that PR is so far off the reservation, unless it is completely rewritten, it won't be accepted.

it could have been rewritten, rewriting PRs is cheap today, but that isn't the question. the question is, would it have been accepted had it met all the quality and engineering standards and full disclosure that it was 90%+ LLM generated?
